Remote detection of boundary-layer transition by an optical systemThis instrument development program was funded because of the urgent need to measure boundary-layer transition in wind tunnels. In the course of this development program, a prototype was designed, built, and tested. Recent transonic experiments in the Boeing Model Transonic Wind Tunnel show that the interferometer results correlate very well with sublimating chemical tests.
