planar laser-induced fluorescence [¦plā·nər ¦lā·zər in‚düst flə′res·əns]

(fluid mechanics)

A flow visualization technique in which a thin sheet of monochromatic laser radiation is used to excite a particular molecular species in a flow, and the resulting fluorescence emission of this species gives some indication of its number density. Abbreviated PLIF.
