Research abstract
TWO STATE-OF-THE-ART NON-INTRUSIVE OPTICAL TECHNIQUES ARE PROPOSED FOR USE IN MEASURING THE LAMINAR-TO-TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYER TRANSITION POINT ON BALLISTIC RANGE MODELS. THE TECHNIQUES ADVOCATED ARE PULSED LASER-INDUCED-FLUORESCENCE DIFFERENTIAL IMAGING AND LASER HOLOGRAPHIC INTERFEROMETRY. BOTH TECHNIQUES HAVE THE SECONDARY POTENTIAL OF PROVIDING INFORMATION ON CHEMICAL SPECIES CONCENTRATIONS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. THE PHASE I STUDY WILL RESULT IN THE ULTIMATE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DESIGN AND CAPABILITY SCOPING.
