Abstract

Holography allows for the use of various interferometric methods for measuring processes of heat and mass transfer. In this chapter the principles of optical arrangements for such experiments are shown. The techniques of data acquisition and evaluation are discussed. Examples demonstrate the advantages of the techniques used. Holographic interferometry has displaced Mach-Zehnder interferometry completely due to its greater cost effectiveness, simplicity of operation and convenience. Holographic interferometry does not require machining or manufacturing of test section windows, mirrors or lenses with special precision or accuracy, because imperfections are automatically balanced by the holographic two step procedure.
