We report the development of a three-legged, high-speed, high-energy, burst-mode laser system for the simultaneous measurement of velocity and key combustion species in turbulent reacting flows. The laser system is designed to simultaneously amplify a four-pulse sequence [including a doublet pulse for particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements] with variable pulse separations at a repetition rate up to 500 kHz and a burst duration of 1-10 ms. With the three-legged, burst-mode laser system, we demonstrate simultaneous measurements of velocity using PIV and planar laser-induced fluorescence imaging of hydroxyl and formaldehyde in a turbulent jet flame.
