Equidensitometric Methods In An Evaluation Process Of A Film Record Of A Switching Arc

A high speed cinematography is also one of useful and fruitful methods of optical plasma diagnostics. Value levels of informations obtained from a film record can be very different; this fact depends very much on a used evaluation process. An equidensitometrical investigation is a suitable method for an increase of the information capacity and it presents a possibility how to obtain more valuable informations. Two ways directing to the acquirement of equidensitometric maps were used in our work: a wet photographic process using the Sabattier effect and an electronic device constructed for the special purpose. Some results obtained by these both evaluation methods are compared and discussed.
