This is the third conference that attempts to collate the latest developments in laser and laser technologies for the feasibility of laser ignition in practical combustion systems. In parallel, the latest developments in non-laser ignition systems will also be presented, along with studies that enhance our understanding of the ignition process. Included in this conference are guest lectures from leading authorities on laser ignition technologies.
Topics will include:
- Latest developments in laser & laser technologies (hardware).
- Advanced ignition systems for stationary natural gas engines – lean-burn, high EGR, etc.
- Advanced ignition systems for vehicular applications – GDI, high EGR, etc.
- Laser ignition in Aerospace applications – low-density combustion, Hypersonics, etc.
- Laser diagnostics associated with laser induced breakdown – LIBS, etc.
