Abstract
Velocity vector measurement by using fiber-optic low coherence interferometers is proposed and demonstrated. The interference outputs between the reference and backscattered light from the probing points in the flow are correlation processed. The probing points can be specified and are set on the x-, y-, and z-axis in the flow by using the fiber-optic low coherence interferometers. The direction (angles from each axis) and absolute value of the flow velocity can be measured from peak positions of correlations.
