Laser Doppler velocimetry, (LDV), is a reliable velocity measurement technique that has been used experimentally for almost forty years. The objective of this project was to understand and explain fundamental LDV theory and practice through the design, configuration, operation and utilization of a functional LDV system. This was accomplished through a series of LDV operations on simulated and experimental fluid flows.
