Description
Areas of application
-
Non-steady-state flows: Both spatially and temporally high-resolution point flow measurement
-
Non-contact measurements: The non-invasive method enables precise flow measurement without influencing it
Functionality
-
Measurement variables: Two-dimensional velocity vectors and turbulent fluctuation variables
-
Measurement principle: Two coherent laser beams generate an interference pattern in the measurement volume, the interference of which is detected by fluid particles
-
Doppler burst signals: The speed and direction of the flow are calculated from the signal changes
-
Interference pattern: The direction is determined by the frequency shift through the Bragg cell
Properties
-
Calibration-free: The method requires no calibration
-
High temporal resolution: Optimal detection of highly turbulent flows
-
Multi-dimensional flow analysis: Detection of up to three velocity components simultaneously
