Abstract
In fluid flow and heat-transfer studies, it is often necessary to illuminate the fluid for visual observations or for photography. Windows can be used but it may be more convenient to immerse the light source directly in the fluid. This raises the question as to whether standard light bulbs can withstand the thermal gradients that would be imposed if immersed in cryogenic or noncryogenic fluids.
