Over recent years a consortium of university research teams and industrial partners have been developing a large-scale tomographic imaging system to measure the cross-sectional distribution of CO2 in the exhaust of commercial aero-engines [1-3]. This work has been carried out in two major phases: the first, entitled “Fibre Laser Imaging of Turbine Exhaust Species” and funded by the UK Engineering and Sciences Research Council, had the aim of developing a system to provide 2-dimensional cross-sectional images of CO2concentration at a frame rate of 5 Hz; and the second, entitled “Combustion Species Imaging Diagnostics for Aero-Engine Research” and funded by EU H2020, is still in progress and aims to take the original CO2 imaging system and develop it to Technology Readiness Level 6. In this paper we present the current status of the system and show initial measurements of CO2 in aero-engine exhaust at a frame rate of 1.25 Hz.

N2 - Quantification of aero-engine emission is typically carried out using extractive sampling resulting in poor spatio-temporal resolution. Here we present recent images obtained using non-intrusive chemical species tomography on a large-scale commercial aero-engine.
