Sumario:As an effective optical diagnosis method, tunable diode-laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) has increasingly moved to examine nonuniform flows, such as two-dimensional combustion diagnosis. To investigate the effect of nonuniformity along the line of sight in a measurement using TDLAS, the integrated absorbance (IA, the key intermediate quantity in TDLAS) error was quantified. The error distribution is obtained from the line-shape parameters through the comprehensive analysis of the line-shape function and the fitting method. The effects of the fitting function and the absorption line overlap are also considered. A general method for estimating the error is given. The work illustrates the applicability of TDLAS technology in nonuniform flow fields and provides input parameters for the evaluation of tunable diode laser absorption tomography error.
