β¦ Synopsis
Several techniques associated with the use of hot wire anemometry in compressible turbulence measurements are described and tested in shock tube flows. These techniques include 1. in-situ calibration of the hot-wire probe by firing several shock waves of different strengths in the shock tube; 2. on-line analog frequency compensation or off-line digital compensation of the temperature-wire; 3. simultaneous acquisition of time-dependent flow velocity and temperature of the flow without invoking Morkovin's hypothesis of strong Reynolds analogy. The techniques were tested in two different shock tube facilities, where a grid generated turbulent flow interacting with a moving shock was set up. 1

## Abstract This paper extends the use of hotβwire and hotβfilm anemometry to the measurement of velocities in gas mixtures. It is demonstrated that the velocity data in binary gas mixtures can be satisfactorily predicted by calibration tests in pure systems alone or at any two convenient compositi
