Simultaneous gas phase temperature and water vapor concentration measurement are important to understand reacting flows such as combustion or gas reforming processes. Here, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) offers the possibility for non-intrusive measurements with a high temporal and spatial resolution. Therefore, this work demonstrates the simultaneous measurement of temperature and relative water vapor–nitrogen concentrations by using dual-pump vibrational coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (DPVCARS). A calibration procedure is developed for a temperature range of 473 K to 673 K and a water vapor concentration of 24% to 46% at ambient pressure. This setup is tested with 500 CARS single pulse spectra taken in a gas cell at a known temperature and concentration. Based on these results, information about precision and accuracy can be delivered.
