Laser-Doppler gas velometer

Three dimensional laser Doppler instrument measures both local mean and fluctuating gas velocity of air flow. Technique is used for measuring atmospheric wind velocity and turbulence. Under certain conditions liquid flows can be measured.

Calculation of infrared spectral transmittances of inhomogeneous gases

Calculation of spectral transmittance for a particular inhomogeneous gas path is made by combining known data on gases at constant temperature, pressure, and concentration. The spectral transmittances of the inhomogeneous plume gases is needed to calculate the heat radiated from the exhaust plume to the rocket base of a multiple engine rocket.

Laser Doppler flowmeter measures gas velocity

Utilizing the large magnitudes of Doppler shifts obtainable from a CW gas laser, local velocity vectors are measured by using the visible light from the laser. This technique is applicable for the measurement of velocity of any moving surface.
