Novel PIV Systems for Fluid Mechanical Measurements

Objective

The purpose of the project is to join an expertise of six world-leading groups (DLR, Germany, CIRA, Italy, The Univ. of Edinburgh, UK, MPEI, Russia, Moscow and ITP, Novosibirsk, Russia, and HMTI, Minsk, Belarus) in the field of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) for further development of the experimental technique and for the study of fluid mechanical phenomena and heat and mass transfer processes. These novel diagnostic techniques, including recently proposed by DLR systems BOS, BOSS and BOOT, will be used for the flow visualization and quantitative determination of instantaneous 2D velocity fields and spatial flow structures of complex turbulent 3D flows in various media. For this purpose the development of PIV technique must go on in order to achieve higher accuracy, higher spatial and temporal resolution, and larger observation areas and volumes of experimental data.

Specifically, the objectives are
To develop advanced software for advanced PIV systems, including recently proposed schemes by DLR for the investigation of density in fluids such as BOS, BOSS and BOOT, which are urgently required to study complex 3D flows with strong vortices, refraction, multiple scattering, and of sound fields;
To develop "low cost" hardware (e.g. by employing low cost flash lamps instead of expensive pulse lasers) for such PIV systems in order to enable universities of FSU to have their own PIV systems and to be able to use the unique features of PIV for fundamental research;
To extend the potential of the PIV method to the diagnostics of two (multi-) phase flows with polydisperse particles distribution;
To develop novel optical processing techniques for PIV based on the Coherent Doppler Processing technology (PIV CDP);
To extend the PIV method to the diagnostics of bio-tissues with analysis of multi-scattering effects.

By extending the EC-FSU collaboration we would expect to make significant advances, both in the development of new techniques, and in the application of existing techniques to problems of importance for the international community. We would also expect to expand on our industrial contacts to ensure that results will bring tangible benefits.
