Simultaneous high-resolution Rayleigh scattering imaging and planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) of OH are combined to measure the dissipative scales associated with thermal mixing and the structure and scales of extinguished regions of the reaction zone. Measurements are performed throughout the near field (x/d = 5, 10, 15, 20) of two turbulent, non-premixed methane/hydrogen/nitrogen jet flames with Re = 15,200 and 22,800 (flames DLR-A and DLR-B of the TNF workshop). Locally extinguished regions are identified by discontinuities in the OH layers, and the extinction hole sizes are measured. For each flame, the probability density function of the hole sizes is very similar throughout the entire near field, with the most likely hole size being 1.9 mm in DLR-A and 1.1 mm in DLR-B. Extinction events are equally probable at all measurement locations in DLR-A. In the DLR-B flame, there is a progression from frequent extinction close to the nozzle to more continuous reaction zones further downstream. The approximate instantaneous location of the stoichiometric contour is determined using the OH-PLIF images, enabling statistical analysis of dissipative scales conditioned on rich and lean conditions. The widths of the thin, elongated structures that dominate the thermal dissipation field are measured. Statistics of this microscale are qualitatively similar in both flames, with the higher Reynolds number producing smaller scales throughout the flow field. For dissipation layers in rich regions, the layer widths increase significantly with increasing temperature, while on the lean side the layer widths decrease with increasing temperature.
