Scanning laser Doppler Technique for velocity profile sensing on a moving surface

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A scanning laser Doppler technique based on Chebyshev demodulation has been developed for the rapid measurement of spatially distributed velocity profiles. Scan frequencies up to 100 Hz can be used over scan lengths up to 270 mm. The Doppler signals are processed in the conventional manner using a frequency counter. The analog velocity output from the counter is post-processed to obtain the velocity profile. The Chebyshev demodulation post-processing technique for processing the velocity signals from solid surfaces has been introduced. The data processing technique directly yields the spatial velocity distribution in approximate functional form through frequency domain analysis of the scanning LDV velocity output. Results from a rotating disk setup are presented to illustrate the concept.
