Visual and quantitative measurement of the temperature distribution of heat conduction process in glass based on digital holographic interferometry

The temperature distribution of heat conduction process in transparent solid medium is visually and quantitatively measured based on digital holographic interferometry. A series of phase maps reflecting the temperature distribution of a glass sample during the heat conduction process are numerically reconstructed from the digital holograms. Then, based on the derived relationship between temperature variation and phase change, we obtained the full field temperature distribution of the glass sample by the method of sample point calibration. By seriating maps of the temperature distribution, a movie is produced to show the heat conduction phenomenon more vividly. What is more, based on the thermodynamic model of heat conduction, we numerically figured out the temperature distribution of the glass sample using the finite element algorithm. It turns out that the experimental results are consistent with the numerical simulation results very well.
