The fluid dynamics process leading to laminar-turbulent transition behind an isolated roughness element is investigated in the incompressible regime using particle image velocimetry. The study covers the effect of roughness size and geometry on the promotion of transition. The measurement domain covers a large streamwise range from the near wake...

A tomographic PIV system is introduced for the instantaneous measurement of the material derivative of velocity (VMD). The system is able to operate with very short temporal separation and is therefore suitable for applications in high-speed flows. The method of operation consists of the imaging of a measurement volume using an array of 12 CCD...

An investigation on the compressibility effects arising into the near field of turbulent jets operated at high Reynolds number at Mach numbers M=0.3, 0.9 and 1.1 (under-expanded regime) is carried out with two-components planar PIV experiments with high resolution cameras. The arrangement of the PIV system allows for mapping out the flow field...

Tonal noise generated by airfoils observed at low to moderate Reynolds numbers is related to laminar boundary layer instabilities, which has lead to the term laminar boundary layer instability noise. The particular features of the acoustic spectrum have been discussed and a number of theories have been proposed in literature over the past 50...

Classical Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) uses two representations of the particle image distribution to determine the displacement of the particle image pattern by spatial cross-correlation. The accuracy and the robustness are however limited by the fact that only two representations at t and t +?t are present. Thus, only a first order...

A tomographic PIV system composed of a large number of cameras is used to experimentally investigate the relation between image particle density, number of cameras and the reconstruction quality. The large number of cameras allows to determine an asymptotic behavior for the object reconstruction over a wide range of values for the tracer...

The topic of uncertainty quantification in particle image velocimetry (PIV) is recognized as very relevant in the experimental fluid mechanics community, especially when dealing with turbulent flows, where PIV plays a prime role as diagnostic tool. The issue is particularly important when PIV is used to assess the validity of results obtained...

This work investigates the three dimensional organization of compressible jets at high-speed regime by tomographic particle image velocimetry (TOMO PIV). Experiments are conducted at Mach numbers 0.3, 0.9 and 1.1 (underexpanded regime) across the end of the potential core within a large cylindrical domain (1.6Dx8D, with D=22mm the jet diameter)....

The present work investigates the use of a vortex-in-cell (VIC) inviscid, incompressible Navier-Stokes solver [1,2] to increase temporal resolution of time-resolved 3D fluid-velocity data obtained from tomographic PIV experiments. The measurement rate in such experiments is limited by available laser power, and the requirements of laser pulse...

The work explores the use of time-resolved tomographic PIV measurements to study a flapping-wing model, the related vortex generation mechanisms and the effect of wing flexibility on the clap-and-fling movement in particular. An experimental setup is designed and realized in a water tank by use of a single wing model and a mirror plate to...
