It is very important that we understand the dynamic behaviors of the laser induced plume in welding, because the laser induced plume has considerable e ects on welding e ciency and the quality of materials. Many experimental studies have been performed in order to observe the plume behaviors using a

โฆ Synopsis
High-speed holographic interferometry was applied to the experimental study of a laser-induced plasma plume in pulsed laser welding. We adopted two kinds of holographic interferometers for visualizing and imaging the refractive index distribution of the plume and vaporized metal; a real-time holographic interferometer with a high-speed camera and a double-pulsed holographic interferometer with a dual-reference-beam module. The high-speed photographs of the weld plume were compared with the visualized images by holographic interferometer. The experimental results show the process of generation and propagation of the laser-induced plume and give the feasibility of quantitative measurement of the density distribution of the laser-induced plume and vaporized metal in laser welding.

A visualization method for cryogenic thermo-hydrodynamic phenomena is established by using a laser holographic interferometer. The technique is applied to the study of some transient heat transfer, that is the thermal shock wave propagation and onset of boiling in He II. All these phenomena are ind
