A Study on the Aspheric Lens Design and Manufacturing for Flow Visualization
This study presents the method of design and manufacturing of aspheric lens for flow visualization. Spherical lens is used in many fields especially flow visualization experiment. Because sperical lens has aberration by origin in flow visualization, there is case that is alternated by asperic lens. Most of asperic lens's modeling which is applied to Taylor's method. This study is designed to the aspheric lens by Euler's method, which is useful method for various geometric shape and complex experimental apparatus for flow visualization. In the present study, we have verified design and manufacturing aspheric lens through a flow visualization experiment.
