Abstract

STDCE-2 is a fundamental fluid physics experiment (scheduled for flight in Fall 95) studying steady state and oscillatory free-surface deformations as a function of surface temperature and chamber geometry. During the mission, approximately twelve hours of Ronchigram data is scheduled to be recorded to video tape. Thus, the analysis software must be highly automated. This paper describes a backtracking algorithm for automated fringe center tracking of digitized interferogram data and presents some results.
