Estimation of the temperature of flame with asymmetric profile

Abstract

The large number of projections needed for tomographic reconstruction makes prohibitive the use of algebraic methods for fast phase object reconstruction. However, for smooth and continuous phase objects, the reconstruction can be performed with few projections by using an algorithm that approximates the phase as a linear combination of gaussian basis functions. This work presents an accurate algebraic reconstruction of a flame temperature from two independent interferometers using a He-Ne laser (623.8nm).
