Holographic movies used to study turbulent flows. High-speed movie composed of single-exposure holograms of tracer particles in each of two simultaneous orthogonal views of flow. Time resolution set by movie frame rate, and total time limited by length of movie. Data from system used to verify results of theoretical models and numerical simulations of turbulence, visualize and measure coherent structures in "non-simple" turbulent flows, to examine mechanisms operative in various turbulence-control/drag-reduction concepts.
