LACOM will focus on basic experimentation, meaning the in-depth investigation of physical phenomena occurring during multiphase combustion in turbine engines, especially aircraft jet engines....
By the mid eighties, Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) matured to the point of allowing semi-quantitative tomoscopic imaging of radicals and of temperature in flames, procuring remarkable insight into the flowfield dynamics and the chemistry of jet engines or piston engines....
