Abstract A planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) data treatment taking into account variations of the fluorescence extinction due to pH is presented. It is shown that the proposed method needs to be implemented when the product of extinction coefficient variations, path length travelled by the laser and fluorescence concentration become large as in large tank experiments. The influence of extinction coefficient variations has been evaluated on CO2 concentration measurement for a test case in the wake of a free rising bubble.

1 Introduction This study is concerned with quantitative experimental concentration field measurements of dissolved CO2 in water using planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF). CO2 concentration measurements in the wake of a free rising bubble have been carried out. Such measurements could be

useful as a validation for numerical simulations of interfacial gas/liquid mass transfer. Those simulations are often applied to free rising bubble test cases.
