    Abstract

    During the temperature difference of 10℃~230℃, three kinds of ShackHartman measuring methods are used to contrast atmospheric coherence length r0 with quadrant detector(QD), and ShackHartman(SH) and photomultiplier tube(PMT) respectively are applied to contrast refractive index structure parameter C2n with scintillation power spectrum. The experimental results show that: for r0 , the stability of QD decreases more obviously than SH when there is strong turbulence, and for three ShackHartman methods, DIMM overcomes problems such as device jitter but brings in problem of inconsistency in direction which wave front method can avoid; for C2n, SH is more precise than PMT which fitting correlation coefficient is up to 0.96; for scintillation power spectrum, the maximum frequency SH tested is 15 Hz higher than that of PMT when it is 200℃ influenced by noise; through the analysis of ShackHartman subaperture scintillation power spectrum, the scintillation power spectrum is not able to be measured precisely and different subapertures accomplish the measurement turbulence uniformity when the same subaperture incident intensity is not in the CCD response linear interval. The results will provide an optimal test method and theoretical basis for turbulence cell.
