Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA) Measurement Systems

LDA 2-component measurement around a helicopter model in a wind tunnel.

Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA), also known as Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV), is an optical technique ideal for non-intrusive 1D, 2D and 3D point measurement of velocity and turbulence distribution in both free flows and internal flows.

Science and industry apply our LDA systems to gain a clearer understanding of fluid mechanics. The measurement results are important steps in fine-tuning product designs to improve aerodynamic efficiency, quality and safety.

Features

Non intrusive No calibration required
Velocity range 0 to supersonic One, two or three velocity components simultaneously
Measurement distance from centimeters to meters Flow reversals can be measured
High spatial and temporal resolution Instantaneous and time averaged
