Abstract: | A CO2 laser anemometer is described which gives a real-time, continuous, measure of one component of wind velocity. Results are presented of a series of trials in which the laser anemometer is compared with a conventional propeller anemometer at ranges up to 50 m from the laser. Very good agreement is observed between the outputs of the two devices. |
