Abstract

Background oriented schlieren (BOS) visualization technique is examined by means of optical geometry. Two most important results are the calculation of the sensitivity and spatial resolution of a BOS system, which allows for the determination of the experiment design space. A set of relations that characterize the performance of a BOS measurement is given, with emphasis on the design of background pattern and spatial placement of optical components.

Fußnoten
1
Lorentz–Lorenz equation relates polarizability of an assembly of molecules to the refractive index. For gases, this relation can be approximated by the Gladstone–Dale equation (Born and Wolf 2005).
 
2
This equation holds for a ray of light that images a point from the physical space into a point in image space. As it is known from image analysis, the determination of pixel shifts with subpixel resolution is possible, but only over an area.
 
3
There are examples of the usage of BOS technique for visualizing open air blast waves with \(s_o \approx 400\) and \(s_t \approx 100\) m (Mizukaki et al. 2012).
 
4
In order to eliminate diffraction effects, Eq. (9) with k = 0 may serve as a threshold for the coherence length of the light source.
