Abstract
Computed tomography of chemiluminescence (CTC) has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for three-dimensional (3D) combustion visualization and measurement, in which the number of cameras and their spatial arrangement significantly impact the tomographic reconstruction quality. In this work, the relationship of the camera spatial arrangement and tomographic reconstruction accuracy is theoretically established based on two-dimensional (2D) and 3D Mojette transforms and their accurate reconstruction conditions. Numerical simulations and experiments were conducted to demonstrate the theories. The results suggest that the exact reconstruction conditions of the Mojette transforms can be used to determine the minimum number of cameras required for tomography reconstruction, and its achieved reliability can be used as an indicator to predict the reconstruction quality. Besides, the 2D coplanar semicircular configuration exhibits a better performance than that of the 3D non-coplanar arrangement. When the 3D non-coplanar arrangement is adopted, the cameras should be widely distributed in the hemispherical space. The related research provides a theoretical basis for the establishment of the CTC system and other tomography modalities.
