- Abstract
- A dispersion model for the optical constants of soot in hydrocarbon flames has been established on the basis of a more rigorous consideration of the electronic band structure and the dispersion constants. The dispersion constants of hydrocarbon soot have been determined from this model in conjunction with the in-situ flame transmission date in the visible and infrared ranges, thus truly reflecting soot in flames.
