Direct experimental comparison between tomo-PIV and scanning tomo-PIV: wake flow behind a half-cylinder
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a direct experimental comparison is made between scanning and tomo-PIV, on an unsteady wake flow behind a half-cylinder. Several seeding densities are used in order to demonstrate the capacities and limitations of both techniques. For the scanning technique, the effect of particles elongation is investigated and the influence of the seeding density on the volume reconstruction for tomo-PIV is examinated. The results of the two techniques are compared in terms of volume and velocity fields.

متن کاملTime-resolved tomo-PIV measurements to study 3D coherent structures in a pulsed jet in cross-flow
The recent tomo-PIV technique is presented and apply to a pulsed jet in cross-flow. This technique gives the instantaneous three-dimensional velocity field in a fat sheet (typically the depth of the measurement volume is a tenth of the other dimensions). The results presented here show the applicability of the technique to the characterization of a complex three-dimensional flow.

متن کاملLagrangian acceleration evaluation for tomographic PIV : a particle - tracking based approach
The evaluation of the instantaneous three-dimensional pressure field from tomographic PIV data relies on the accurate estimate of the Lagrangian acceleration. To date, techniques to reconstruct the Lagrangian trajectories from velocity fields obtained by Tomo-PIV have been used. Nevertheless, the reconstruction of relatively long trajectories, beneficial for the reduction of the precision error...
