40 Conclusions 1. Plasma can significantly accelerate the fuel oxidization at low temperature to extend the extinction limit dramatically. 2. Major kinetic pathways in plasma assisted combustion were identified. 3. A new counterflow burner with in situ discharge was developed. This burner provides a new platform to study kinetic effect of plasma assisted combustion. 4. The In situ discharge can maximize E/N at high T flame region, therefore, maximize the electron energy and effect on reaction zone, and enhance ignition and extinction. 5. The In situ discharge can dramatically enhance the ignition and modify the classical S-curve to be a monotonic curve. 6. MBMS was developed and H 2 O 2 was successfully measured directly for the first time in reacting system, enabling diagnostics of intermediate species in plasma assisted combustion at low T. 39
41 Future work Plasma part: 1. OH PLIF for counter flow diffusion flame with in situ discharge and compare with simulations 2. Low temperature plasma assisted combustion for large alkanes 3. Flow reactor experiments on liquid fuel with QCL diagnostics on H 2 O, H 2 O 2 and HO 2 4. Develop validated plasma flame models MBMS part: 1. Develop a JSR to study the low temperature and high pressure chemistry 2. Integrate JSR with plasma discharge to investigate plasma chemistry 3. Develop advanced light source to ionize the molecular beam 4
