Abstract
An optical tomography system that is capable of operating at frame rates of
up to 5 kHz has been used to obtain spatially resolved cross-sectional tem
perature images of a heated round jet. These tomographic images show dynami
c details in the evolving vortical flow structures found in the near field
of the jet that are consistent with previous studies of low speed jet flow.
Reconstructions produced by the system are quantitative temperature distri
butions of a planar cross section of the jet measuring temperature differen
ces with a spatial resolution of 1.4 mm.
