We describe a method that uses classic optical coherence tomography to measure the transverse fluid-flow velocity quantitatively without knowing the Doppler angle. An intensity based cross-correlation calculation is taken point-to-pointly between two close cross sections of the scattering fluid to estimate the time delay for scattering particles passing through the two sections which are scanned alternately at a high speed. The transverse velocity distribution of the scattering fluid-flow in the whole section is achieved finally. The experimental results agree well with the preset ones. This method is insensitive to the Doppler angle and provides a variable velocity detection range in different application conditions.
