Abstract
A new experimental method is described which allows the simultaneous real-time measurement of concentration and velocity in simple flow fields of binary gas mixtures. This method combines the use of Rayleigh light scattering for concentration measurements and hot-wire (or hot-film) anemometry. Calibration methods and representative results are discussed.
