This report presents a preliminary investigation of the crossed beam correlation technique for the measurement of local characteristics of turbulent jets. Tests on a bromine jet flowing coaxially to an air stream indicate the feasibility of the approach. Continuous recording-reduction equipment should be used to facilitate data acquisition. Extension of this method to the examinat ion of turbulent flames was shown to be possible since response similar to that of a cooled film anemometer was obtained. Where anemometry cannot be applied this technique is especially useful, such as in the investigation of projectile centrelines, turbulent flames and other high energy flows. Initial experiments demonstrate the versatility of this technique and thus warrant continued development.
