Working Principles • The system consists in: • An illumination source: • high power pulse laser to generate a light sheet • A seeding system: using particles contained in the atmosphere (natural) or spraying particles • An optical part: 2 or more high speed / high resolution cameras, set perpendicularly to the laser sheet to capture the illuminated particles, by cross-correlation • Post-processing and correlation tools • Processing • Two pictures are taken in a timeframe of 0,1µs: the illuminated particles are captured at t and (t + ∆t). • As the particles move, the displacement is measured and the velocity vector is computed Example of a velocity field measured with the PIV technique
