Abstract
In order to perform the flow visualization of a shock train structure by the schlieren imaging method in the cylindrical isolator, to the best of our knowledge, a novel integrative design and processing scheme of an aluminum alloy pipe with an acrylic conformal optical window pair are proposed. The optical ray tracing and wavefront correction methods were applied to design the inner cylindrical surfaces and outer aspherical cylindrical surfaces of the optical window pair for parallel light correction based on the conjoint analysis with the processing capability. Under the tolerance analysis and the optimization of the machining path, the integrative model was fabricated on a three-axis computer numerical control machine using two-axis turning and fast tool servo machining. The wavefront aberration (peak-to-valley value) and wavefront aberration (RMS) of the optical window pair were corrected within 12.189 and
