“…For example, quantitative measurements of laminar and laminar-unsteady hypersonic boundary layer behavior, [5][6][7] reaction control system (RCS) jet behavior in wake flows, 5,6,8,9 and facility characterization 10 were of particular interest. Since these types of experiments were to be made in flows with both a steady and unsteady nature, the quantitative measurements to be used required the ability to probe the flowfield with relatively high spatial and temporal accuracy and precision.…”

This paper reviews five laser-induced fluorescence-based velocimetry techniques that have been used to study high-speed compressible flows at NASA Langley Research Center. The techniques discussed in this paper include nitric oxide (NO) molecular tagging velocimetry (MTV), nitrogen dioxide photodissociation (NO 2 -to-NO) MTV, and NO and atomic oxygen (O-atom) Doppler-shift-based velocimetry. Measurements of both singlecomponent and two-component velocity have been performed using these techniques. This paper details the specific application and experiment for which each technique has been used, the facility in which the experiment was performed, the experimental setup, sample results, and a discussion of the lessons learned from each experiment.
