In this paper, a new multidirectional holographic interferometric system is built, and two kinds of image reconstruction algorithms are introduced and an automatic image processing system of interferogram is designed. A three dimentsional asymmetric gas flow field above a combustor is expertmentally investigated with holographic interferometry.
