“…Flow visualization techniques have shown great advantages in aerodynamic studies with higher spatial resolution and lower disturbance to the flow field [1]. The fulfillment of flow visualization techniques, such as PIV [2,3], PSP [4,5], and SSLCC [6,7], usually requires excitation light providing sufficient illumination that covers the tested object, and a camera acquiring the particular visual phenomenon of the whole measurement target, and these are two vital optical components in the measurement system. Before the measurement begins, these two key components need to be located around the tested object, and different positioning will affect the measurement results to some extent.…”
