| Description | Techniques are established for visualizing velocity in gaseous flows. Two approaches are considered, both of which are capable of yielding velocity simultaneously at a large number of flowfield locations, thereby providing images of velocity. The first technique employs a laser to mark specific fluid elements and a camera to track their subsequent motion. Marking is done by laser-induced phosphorescence of biacetyl, added as a tracer species in a flow of N2, or by laser-induced formation of sulfur particulates in SF6-H2-N2 mixtures. The second technique is based on the Doppler effect, and uses an intensified photodiode array camera and a planar form of laser-induced fluorescence to detect 2-d velocities of I2 (in I2-N2 mixtures) via Doppler-shifted absorption of narrow-linewidth laser radiation at 514.5 nm. |
