A method is proposed to determine the instantaneous pressure field from a single tomographic PIV velocity snapshot and is applied to a flat-plate turbulent boundary layer. The main concept behind the single-snapshot pressure evaluation method is to approximate the flow acceleration using the vorticity transport equation. The vorticity field...

In this study, the mean flow organization in the symmetry plane of the recirculation region ahead of a cylindrical roughness element immersed in an incoming laminar boundary layer at Mach number equal to 6.5 is investigated. The flow topology is inspected with planar particle image velocimetry (PIV), InfraRed (IR) Thermography and Schlieren flow...

A method is proposed to reconstruct instantaneous velocity from time-resolved tomographic PTV, employing both instantaneous velocity and velocity material derivative. This improves upon current techniques by not only including penalization of velocity divergence, but also requiring consistency with the temporal derivative of the PTV particle...

Aerodynamics plays a crucial role in many speed sports, where races are often won by fractions of a second. A thorough understanding of the flow field around an athlete is of paramount importance to optimize the athletes’ posture, garment roughness and equipment shape to achieve the minimum aerodynamic drag and maximum velocity. To date,...

Large-scale tomographic Particle Image Velocimetry is proposed as a tool for the on-site aerodynamic investigation in speed sports. The ring-of-fire concept is presented, which relies upon a tomographic PIV system used during the training of athletes in speed sports. The system consists of a short tunnel installed in a velodrome, through which...

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...

The unsteady effect of a periodic pitching motion on the characteristic of a laminar separation bubble on the suction side of a SD7003 aerofoil is investigated by means of time-resolved planar and tomographic particle image velocimetry. The measurements provide information on the separation, transition and vortex roll-up onset as well as the...

Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) was used to study the wake of an ogive-cylinder with after-body at a diameter-based Reynolds number ReD = 6.7 · 104. The vertical fluctuations reduced from a maximum of 0.18 U? in absence of rear-protrusion, up to 0.12 U? and 0.1 U? when the main-body to after- body diameter ratio d/D was increased...

Transitional flow over isolated roughness elements is investigated in the incompressible flow regime using Tomographic PIV. Three different geometries are considered (micro-ramp, cylinder and square) with same height and span. Their effect on accelerating boundary layer transition is compared and discussed. The measurement domain encompasses the...

The motion-tracking-enhanced MART (MTE-MART; Novara et al. in Meas Sci Technol 21:035401, 2010) has demonstrated the potential to increase the accuracy of tomographic PIV by the combined use of a short sequence of non-simultaneous recordings. A clear bottleneck of the MTE-MART technique has been its computational cost. For large datasets...

The flow-tracing fidelity of sub-millimetre diameter helium-filled soap bubbles (HFSB) for low-speed aerodynamics is studied. The main interest of using HFSB in relation to micron-size droplets is the large amount of scattered light, enabling larger-scale three-dimensional experiments by tomographic PIV. The assessment of aerodynamic behaviour...

The present study investigates the mechanisms associated with tonal noise emission from a NACA 0012 aerofoil at moderate incidence (0; 1; 2 and 4 angle of attack) and with Reynolds numbers ranging from 100 000 to 270 000. Simultaneous time-resolved particle image velocimetry (PIV) of the aeroacoustic source region near the trailing edge and...

The wake resulting from two micro ramps operating in a supersonic boundary layer at Ma = 2:0 is investigated by means of PIV. Two micro ramps are investigated with height of 60% and 80% of the undisturbed boundary layer with thickness of 5.2 mm. The measurement domain encompasses the range from 10 to 32 ramp heights downstream of the device. The...

The feasibility of aeroacoustic noise predictions based on Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements is studied. For this purpose, experiments are conducted on a sharp trailing edge (TE) flow developed along a flat plate at free stream velocity of 15m/s. The acoustic emissions were characterized in the NLR Small Anechoic Wind Tunnel (KAT) by...

This paper describes an experimental investigation by time-resolved planar and tomographic PIV on the sound production mechanism of vortex pairing of a transitional water-jet flow at Re=5000. The shear layer is characterized by axisymmetric vortex rings which undergo pairing with a varicose mode. Three-dimensional measurements show the presence...
