Abstract
Light scattering from laser-induced electrostrictive gratings has been used for simultaneous, instantaneous, nonintrusive, and remote measurements of temperature and velocity in a submerged air jet. We accomplished phase-sens itive detection of scattered light by superimposing two signal beams whose frequencies mere Doppler shifted by the movement of the grating. Temperatur es in the range 295-600 K and flow velocities in the range 10-100 m/s were measured. (C) 2000 Optical Society of America.
