Optical techniques are  widely employed for their non-intrusive behavior and are applied to two-phase flowinvestigations. Until now, the most commonly used technique to determine the droplet size is the Phase Doppler Anemogranulometry, although it is time consuming for an overall injector characterization. An imaging technique called Planar Droplet Sizing has been used to offer an alternative and provide a spatially-resolved 2D map of the Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD). The measurement is based on the ratio between laser-induced fluorescence and scattered light intensities which are assumed to be proportional respectively to the droplet volume and droplet surface area. However, previous studies revealed that the dependence of fluorescence intensity on the droplet volume can be altered by the absorption of light in the liquid. The scattered light intensity depends on the scattering angle and intensity variations within the field of view must be avoided.The aim of this study is to make the PDS technique operational for a Jet A-1 kerosene spray. A strong absorption of liquid kerosene appears under UV excitation at 266 nm making the technique unsuitable. Under visible excitation at 532 nm, a fluorescent tracer (Pyrromethene 597) must be added to the kerosene to enhance the fluorescence signal. To prevent scattered light intensity variations within the field of view, an optimal scattering angle close to 115° is required. An image processing algorithm is proposed in order to reduce the effects ofmultiple scattering.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/ILASS2017.2017.4698

SummaryA method of determination of the scattered light intensity, , by a unit-volume of interplanetary space is presented. From ground base Zodiacal Light measurements and the experimental results of Pioneer X the density, ρ(r), and phase, σ(θ), functions are obtained without any previous assumptions about them.

AbstractHydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells incorporating high deposition rate (8-10Å/s) intrinsic layers were deposited using modified very high frequency (MVHF) plasma. We have monitored the light scattered from powder generated in the plasma using an Ar-laser and a silicon photodiode. This simple, non-invasive technique allows us to make measurements on the same reactor used to make the solar cells. First, we have varied the total flow rate and observed a maximum in the scattered light intensity from powder in the plasma during the deposition of the intrinsic layer, and correlated this with the degradation, as well as the stabilized performance of the solar cells. Then, we have studied the effects of varying the deposition temperature and/or the addition of germane to the gas mixture on the scattered light intensity due to powder in the plasma.

Comets constitute an important source for the zodiacal dust cloud. Mainly large particles are contributed because the smaller particles are emitted into hyperbolic orbits relative to the sun. Radiation pressure force reduces the effective solar gravitational attraction. Information about large cometary particles can be derived from a variety of sources requiring quite different observational techniques. Many distinct meteor streams are connected to orbits of short period comets. These streams contain large dust particles that are very little influenced by radiation pressure force. In some cases such as the η Aquarids and Orionids connected to comet Halley the total mass and the age of the meteors have been derived (Hughes, 1987; Hajduk, 1987). The mass of the streams is 5 to 10 times larger than the present mass of the nucleus and their lifetime corresponds to 2000 to 3000 orbital periods. Visible meteors are typically 10−2g and more of centimetre size.
