A two-component Laser Doppler and Laser Transit Anemometer have been compared under industrial testing conditions in the flow field of a propeller. Free stream flow speed was 40 m/s. The propeller, diameter .73 m, was operated at 3500 and 6000 rpm. Axial and tangential velocities were measured in front of, in between, and behind the propeller blades.
