Abstract

Algorithms for extracting shock wave fronts from interferograms of a flow field and for registering time-series shock waves are proposed. Based on these, application software is developed on a PC-Vision 100 image-processing system. As application examples, interferograms of a primary high-explosive flow field and a real, solid rocket muzzle flow field are processed. The results indicate that the propagation velocity of the shock wave can be easily calculated with this method.
