The use of the smoke tube and titanium tetrachloride techniques in the study of low Reynolds number flow about two different airfoils is presented. Emphasis is placed on the problems of determining the characteristics of laminar separation bubbles occurring on the Wortmann FX63-137 airfoil and the NACA 66(3)-018 airfoil. Comparisons are made with the hot-wire technique and the use of kerosene vapor.
