Book Description
A computer-integrated LDV system utilizing a Helium-Neon laser was designed, assembled and tested for use in the study of steady flow field quantities. All system elements were integrated to include a traverse mechanism, signal processing and conditioning, computer interface and display. The system was initially calibrated utilizing a rotating wheel of known velocity. Experimental flow measurement tests of the system were conducted across a conventional free jet flow and in the Naval Postgraduate School low speed wind tunnel. The flow field velocity measurements made in the wind tunnel were verified usin an existing pressure data acquisition station and a standard pitot static probe. Keywords: Laser doppler velocimetry.

Unsteady Flow Field Measurements Using LDV.

Pages : 73
Book Description
The primary goal of this thesis was the development of an experimental technique, and supporting software, for the acquisition and analysis of unsteady velocity data generated by an oscillating airfoil. This research was in support of a major investigation of the compressibility effects on dynamic stall. The experimental procedure involved schlieren flow visualization for comparison of steady and unsteady flow fields, and for determination of parameters for further study. Laser Doppler velocimetry was employed for obtaining velocity data in the airfoil wake. For unsteady data, the airfoil was oscillated in pitch about its quarter chord. The data analysis produced wake profile plots representing the flow field distributed by the airfoil. Results were obtained for steady and unsteady conditions. Keywords: Laser doppler velocimetry, Schlieren flow visualization, Dynamic stall.

The Development of a Laser Doppler Velocimetry System for Unsteady Separated Flow Research

ISBN:
Category : Laser Doppler velocimeter
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
The Frank J. Seiler Research Laboratory (FJSRL) at the U.S. Air Force Academy is conducting a comprehensive experimental research program to study unsteady, separated flows and, in particular, the dynamic stall of oscillating airfoils. The aim of this study is to achieve a clearer understanding into the physical mechanisms responsible for dynamic stall and to capitalize on these unique stall features by using them to improve the turn performance and maneuverability of flight vehicles. The objective of one phase of this experimental research program has been to adapt a general purpose Laser Doppler VElocimetry (LDV) two velocity component system to dynamic stall experiments in the Subsonic Wind Tunnel at the USAFA. The preliminary design of the LDV system, its special constraints and the characterization of system signal and noise parameters are described. Results presented for the initial operation of the LDV system demonstrate its performance capabilities. It has been observed that accurate measurements in the wind tunnel environment can be achieved only when optical noise produced by scattered laser light from wind tunnel surfaces is minimized. While the LDV system configuration satisfies all constraints related to the USAFA Subsonic Wind Tunnel geometry and is capable of accurate velocity measurements in the two-dimensional flow field surrounding an airfoil, a reconfiguration of the system is suggested to improve optical alignment procedures and overall system signal-to-noise ratio.

Laser Doppler and Phase Doppler Measurement Techniques
Author: H.-E. Albrecht
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662051656
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 741
Book Description
Providing the first comprehensive treatment, this book covers all aspects of the laser Doppler and phase Doppler measurement techniques, including light scattering from small particles, fundamental optics, system design, signal and data processing, tracer particle generation, and applications in single and two-phase flows. The book is intended as both a reference book for more experienced users as well as an instructional book for students. It provides ample material as a basis for a lecture course on the subject and represents one of the most comprehensive treatments of the phase Doppler technique to date. The book will serve as a valuable reference book in any fluid mechanics laboratory where the laser Doppler or phase Doppler techniques are used. This work reflects the authors' long practical experience in the development of the techniques and equipment, as the many examples confirm.
