Description:
The need for quantitative data is addressed by laser holographic interferometry (LHI) by efficiently recording and reducing high resolution density data. This paper investigates the potential to get quantitative data from an interferogram created from two separate holographic plates. THe LHI measurements were made on a scramjet inlet at Mach 4. LHI successfully generated results for both internal and external flows, and demonstrated its ability to map entire flow fields. Of the three data reduction techniques used, the four-bucket method gave better results than the three-bucket or three-by-three methods. This technique requires high quality holograms as well as a good resolution in the digital images to produce good data.
