Presentation Abstract
Optical interferometers are instruments that can make very precise object measurements using the interference pattern of two waves of light. These devices have been used to characterize materials and to study their properties. In this research we propose a study to develop a fluid characterization protocol for samples made of the same components at low concentration differences.
The methodology consists of analyzing samples consisting of mixtures of colloids of the same components at different concentrations. Once standardized, a software will be developed in order to make a comparison of the interferograms using Fourier analysis (correlation).
Similar studies results show that by optical arrangements like interferometers and image processing, it makes possible a fluid characterization, this nondestructive protocol being a tool for various applications in engineering and science.
