Abstract:This paper deals with the design of an experimental circular channel model specially adapted for particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements of airflow. The goal is to find a simple, fast, and functional approach for creating experimental models. The issue of the required PIV signal quality is defined, and the limits of acquiring relevant PIV data in the interior of circular channels are described, primarily as reflections of direct and scattered laser light caused by light passage through the cylindrical wa… Show more
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.
