Jd. Wang et al., TEMPORAL TEMPERATURE-MEASUREMENT OF EXPLODED GAS BY ABSORPTION-EMISSION SPECTROSCOPY, Instrumentation science & technology, 24(3), 1996, pp. 169-177
A simple apparatus has been developed for the spectroscopic temperatur
e measurement of combustion gases. It has been used to measure the tem
poral temperature-time distribution of exploded gas in the muzzle flas
h from a small calibre rifle. From our experiments, three distinct fla
shes can be observed clearly. The maximum time resolution and accuracy
for temperature measurement are 40 mu s and 6%, respectively.
