In many aerodynamic studies where the flow patterns need to be identified, flow visualization is a tool that is commonly used. Some of the classic forms of flow visualization are the use of smoke, tuffs, oils, and in water, dye injection, hydrogen bubbles, and light sheets. Typically the main purpose of flow visualization is to gather qualitative information not quantitative data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
