The present report describes the realization of an educational simulation
program to determine the amount of linear thermal expansion in experimental
materials. An interferogram signal derived from an interferometric
measurement system was modeled as a video signal in a computer environment.
A simulation program was designed from the model signal in order to detect the
amount of expansion in materials. The simulation program determined the
amount of to heat by detecting the number of fringes in interferogram video
signals of the material. This simulation program facilitated experimental studies
in academic institutions which are deprived of interferometric measurement
systems.
