Extending the velocity range of Robotic Volumetric PIV: Desing and application of a multi-Δt approach

Car industry and motorsport development nowadays strongly rely on wind tunnel testing. As the literature survey shows, in order to fully understand the characteristics of the flow around a car, large-scale and volumetric flow field measurements are required. For its features, PIV can be pointed as a useful technique for automotive wind tunnels....

Robotic Volumetric Particle Tracking Velocimetry by Coaxial Imaging and Illumination

Aerodynamics research and development often involves large-scale and turbulent flows; may this be a rotor flow, the wake of a car, or the flow passing a human athlete to name a few examples. Volumetric particle image velocimetry (PIV) is well suited for the study of such flows. The introduction of Helium Filled Soap Bubbles (HFSB) for wind...
