  2. Shadowgraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowgraph

    Shadowgraph is an optical method that reveals non-uniformities in transparent media like air, water, or glass. It is related to, but simpler than, the schlieren and schlieren photography methods that perform a similar function. Shadowgraph is a type of flow visualisation.

  3. Shadowgraphy (performing art) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowgraphy_(performing_art)

    Shadowgraphy or ombromanie is the art of performing a story or show using images made by hand shadows.It can be called "cinema in silhouette". Performers are titled as a shadowgraphist or shadowgrapher.

    Shadowgraph or shadowgram, an optical method that reveals non-uniformities in transparent media Optical comparator , a device that creates silhouettes of manufactured parts for inspection Shadowgraph, an electromagnetic and optical device once used as an alternative to magic eye tube

  5. Schlieren photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren_photography

    If a knife edge is not used, the system is generally referred to as a shadowgraph system, which measures the second derivative of density. In the two-mirror schlieren system (sometimes called the Z-configuration), the source is collimated by the first mirror, the collimated light traverses the object and then is focused by the second mirror ...

  7. Optical comparator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_comparator

    The profile projector is widely used for complex-shape stampings, gears, cams, threads and comparing the measured contour model.The profile projector is hence widely used in precision machinery manufacturing, including aviation, aerospace industry, watches and clocks, electronics, instrumentation industry, research institutes and detection metering stations at all levels, etc.

  8. Flow visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_visualization

    These are visualized by optical methods known as the shadowgraph, schlieren photography, and interferometry. More directly, dyes can be added to (usually liquid) flows to measure concentrations; typically employing the light attenuation or laser-induced fluorescence techniques. In scientific visualization flows are visualized with two main methods:

  9. Mach wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_wave

    Mach waves can be used in schlieren or shadowgraph observations to determine the local Mach number of the flow. Early observations by Ernst Mach used grooves in the wall of a duct to produce Mach waves in a duct, which were then photographed by the schlieren method, to obtain data about the flow in nozzles and ducts.
