Experimental Observation of Non-Ideal Compressible Fluid Dynamics: with Application in Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems

The flexible asymmetric shock tube (FAST): A Ludwieg tube facility for wave propagation measurements in high-temperature vapours of organic fluids

This paper describes the commissioning of the flexible asymmetric shock tube (FAST), a novel Ludwieg tube-type facility designed and built at Delft University of Technology, together with the results of preliminary experiments. The FAST is conceived to measure the velocity of waves propagating in dense vapours of organic fluids, in the so-called...

Flow measurements in transonic flows of organic fluids with a Ludwieg tube type setup (poster)

Stereoscopic PIV on a delta wing in supersonic flow

Ever since the 1950s delta wings are being used as an efficient planform for supersonic flight. Over time extensive research on the aerodynamics of this type of wings has been performed using many different measurement techniques. Due to technical difficulties, measurements on delta wings in a supersonic flow are still scarce and often limited...
