- Summary
- Multi-element electromagnetic particle velocity gauges are made by sandwiching aluminum conductive elements between sheets of Teflon. The 60 μm thick membrane is then placed in the liquid sample at an angle so that particle velocities are measured at multiple depths. In this paper we report particle velocity measurements in the liquids nitromethane, bromoform and diiodomethane using Teflon gauges inclined to the shock front by 0, 10, 20, and 30 degrees. The particle velocity measured by the inclined gauges was either higher or lower than the ``correct`` particle velocity measured by non inclined gauges. The error in the measured particle velocity is a function both of the relative impedance of the liquid and Teflon membrane, and of the angle of the gauge to the shock front. Measured velocities can be in error by ± 10% for gauges inclined 30°. Analysis shows that some of the error is caused by the liquid slipping past the Teflon membrane.
