Abstract
The radiative properties of energy microalgae are basic parameters used to analyze local light filed in photobioreactor and to predict the productivity of microlagae. In this paper, a scat-terometer was designed and used to measure the scattering phase function of three kinds of Chlorella. For the ease of real application of the measured scattering phase functions, the Henyey-Greenstein phase function model is used to fit the experimentally data. The results show that the trend of scattering phase function vary with the scattering angle is similar for the three kinds of Chlorella. The scattering phase functions feature a strong forward peak, and have asymmetry factor of about 0.99. The Henyey-Greenstein phase function is a good approximation for the scattering phase function of the Chlorella.
