SEPARATION OF TIME-AVERAGED TURBULENCE COMPONENTS BY LASER-INDUCED FLUORESCENCE Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Turbulence is measured by resonant fluorescence of sodium atoms seeded into a supersonic nitrogen jet. By varying the frequency of the pumping laser, the mean square velocity, temperature, and pressure fluctuations (as well as their correlations) may be determined.
