What Does PLIF Stand For?
PLIF stands for Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence
Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF) is an optical measurement technique utilized primarily in fluid dynamics and combustion research. It employs laser-induced fluorescence from specific molecules or particles within a plane of interest, enabling visualization and quantification of concentration fields, temperature distributions, and other important parameters in a flow field. By illuminating a planar region with laser light, PLIF captures detailed spatial data, facilitating the study of complex fluid behaviors and enhancing understanding in various scientific and engineering applications.
