This is the second year-end report on the EHD contract. Whereas
previous work concentrated on building up the experimental facility
and on delineating the effects of turbulence on breakdown, this work
details the effects of turbulence on charged particle mobility. The
two-phase injector is used exclusively.
Spectral measurements of velocity and collector current are
reported. These are used to determine the potential use of EHD in
anemometry and to deduce particle size distributions. Measurements
of charge distribution are also reported and a comparison is made
between these and the spectral measurements.
Equations defining an axisymmetric , turbulent EHD flow have been
derived. Also, the feasibility of flow separation control with an
EHD interaction has been investigated.

Horizontal Propagation Deep Turbulence Testbed
Corley, M.S.; Santiago, F.; T. Martinez; Agrawal, B.N. (2011);The Navy is interested in horizontal laser propagation studies in a maritime environment, near the ocean surface, for applications including imaging and high-energy laser propagation. The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) ... -
Performance of the self referencing interferometer in the presence of simulated deep turbulence and noise effects
Johnson, Lee T. (Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate School, 2013-12);Current laser weapon systems are limited to close range encounters because the laser beam attenuates quickly within the atmosphere. A phenomenon known as deep turbulence is characterized by strong scintillation and branch ... -
Wave optics simulation of atmospheric turbulence and reflective speckle effects in CO2 differential absorption LIDAR (DIAL)
Nelson, Dougles H.; Petrin, Roger R.; MacKerrow, Edward P.; Schmitt, Mark J.; Quick, Charles R.; Zardecki, Andrew; Porch, William M.; Whitehead, Michael; Walters, Donald L. (Livermore, California. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, 1998-04);The measurement sensitivity of C02 differential absorption LIDAR (DIAL) can be affected by a number of different processes. We will address the interaction of two of these processes: effects due to beam propagation through ...
