Abstract

In this paper, focused laser differential interferometry (FLDI) is used to measure a well-characterized, 17 kHz screech tone emitted from an underexpanded Mach 1.5 jet. By utilizing the non-intrusive nature of FLDI, measurements are made at several points outside and within in the supersonic jet flowfield. Comparisons between FLDI data, and data obtained from microphones and high-speed schlieren are made. The agreement of each measurement respective to the other is used to demonstrate that FLDI is a valid and accurate technique for measuring screech tones in jet flowfields, and furthermore that FLDI may be used to measure jet screech at locations where traditional, intrusive diagnostics may not be used effectively.
