Pressure, temperature, and three-component velocity fields by filtered Rayleigh scattering velocimetry.

The filtered Rayleigh scattering (FRS) technique, extended by the method of frequency scanning, is a powerful tool to characterize thermodynamic, as well as aerodynamic, properties of technical flows. In this Letter, we report on the first application of an FRS velocimeter, which is capable of acquiring time-averaged planar pressure, temperature, and three-component velocity distributions simultaneously. The method is validated by characterizing the near-field, as well as the far-field, of a turbulent jet.
