LDA – LDV – Laser Doppler Anemometry
Laser Doppler anemometry (LDA), also known as laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV), is an ideal optical technique for non-intrusive 1D, 2D and 3D spot measurement of velocity and turbulence distribution in both free and internal flows.
Researchers in science and industry use our laser Doppler anemometry (LDA) system to gain a clearer understanding of fluid mechanics. Measurement results are important steps in refining product designs to improve aerodynamic efficiency, quality and safety.
There are several thousand DANTEC laser Doppler velocimeter systems installed around the world, used in widely diverse applications ranging from biofluid mechanics to space science. Most LDV systems are installed in water channels or wind tunnels, and are used for both education and fundamental or applied research, as well as for the optimization of the aerodynamic or hydrodynamic performance of vehicles, aircraft, ships, pumps, turbines. , combustion engines and many others.
