description A systematic study of laser-Induced thermal grating scattering (LITGS) using nitric oxide as an absorbing species is presented as a means of thermometry in air-fed combustion. The relative contributions to the scattered signal from degenerate four-wave mixing, DFWM, and from laser induced thermal grating scattering, LITGS, are studied in the time domain for NO in N2 buffer gas up to 4 bar, using a pulsed laser system to excite the (0,0) -bands of NO at 226.21 nm. LITGS signals from combustion-generated NO in a laminar, pre-mixed CH4/O2/N2 flame on an in-house constructed slot burner were used to derive temperature values as a function of O2 concentration and position in the flame at 1 bar and 2.5 bar total pressure. Temperature values consistent with the calculated adiabatic flame temperature were derived from averaged LITGS signals over 50 – 100 single shots at 10 Hz repetition rate in the range 1600 K – 2400 K with a pressure-dependent uncertainty of ±1.8% at 1 bar to ±1.4% at 2.5 bar. Based on observed signal-to-noise ratios the minimum detectable concentration of NO in the flame is estimated to be 80 ppm for a 5 second measurement time at 10 Hz repetition rate.
