Asunto: Experimental investigation of the characteristics of a laser beam passing through a fluid layer for surface quality in-process measurement
The optical characteristics of a laser beam passing through a fluid parallel layer are examined through a series of experimental tests in this project. The experimental apparatus consists of a bare surface quality measurement system and a fluid-supporting system. In the case of laser beam propagation through the static fluid layer, a modified Beckmann–Kirchhoff scattering model has been developed. Based on this model, the results of the surface quality in-process optical measurement can be amended. By extracting a ratio parameter from the image of the scattered light pattern to estimate surface roughness, the modified model can be verified quantitatively in the experimental system. As far as laser beam propagation through the flowing fluid layer is concerned, the deflection of the laser beam caused by fluid flow is small. The experiments are conducted to investigate the characteristics, and the results show that the resulting measurement error for surface quality optical measurem... |
