Supersonic mixing enhancement techniques are of considerable interest; typically qualitative observations of shear layer growth rate are used to compare these techniques. A more accurate assessment of the efficiency of various mixing techniques could be made using local species concentrations at specific points. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), which can determine local elemental concentrations in a flowfield, is applied to the supersonic…
