Abstract:Micrometer-sized particles are widely introduced as fluid flow markers in experimental studies of convective flows. The tracks of such particles demonstrate a high contrast in the optical range and well illustrate the direction of fluid flow at local vortices. This study addresses the theoretical justification on the use of large particles for obtaining vortex phenomena and its characterization in stenotic arteries by the Echo Particle Velocimetry method. Calcite particles with an average diameter of 0.15 mm w… Show more
