Three-dimensional Doppler anemometer using a holographic optical element.
A new simple 3-D laser Doppler system has been developed for simultaneous measurement of the instantaneous velocity vector of a scattering particle. The system is based on the reference beam method. It uses a hologram to generate the reference beams. Only one laser operating in single mode is required as the light source. The system has been tested by measuring all the components of the Reynolds stress tensor in a round cold air jet. The results are presented.
