PIV Applications Measuring “micro-flows” Studies of turbulence structure Unsteady or periodic flows Capture transient flow details Complex steady flow fields Extremely low velocity flow fields Spatial gradients (at thousands of points) of instantaneous and average flow properties Obtaining global nature of flows Examining spatial interdependence of flow properties PIV is particularly useful for diagnosing unsteady flows. Latent turbulent structures can be unmasked with PIV whereas averaging techniques (like LDV) tend to wash out the structure. In periodic flows, such as IC engines, and turbines, entire flow field information can be obtained for each phase angle. Even in steady flows with complex geometry (e.g. flow around rod bundles) whereas access may be difficult, PIV can be a useful tool. Time averaged velocity and turbulence values at each point in the flow field can also be obtained with PIV when a sequence of frames are analyzed. PIV has been used to measure flows ranging from low velocity natural convection flows all the way to supersonic flows. Applications include measurement in two phase flows, combustion flows, rotating machinery flows, biological flows, wind/water tunnel flows, flow in between rotating disks, etc. Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

MicroPIV Stereoscopic arrangement
The TSI Micro-PIV optical lens assembly is designed to be used in PIV measurements for region smaller than 1 mm, such as micro channels and MEMS devices. The major components included with the assembly are the long working distance microscope objective, the relay lens, the microscope body with traverse mechanism, the camera mount and the fluorescent optical filter. The assembly can be used with any one of the TSI PIV cameras, the PIVCAM series and the PowerView series of cameras. Since the camera is mounted with the assembly as a single system, it provides great flexibility in positioning the system to adapt with the flow model. Additional traverse mechanism could be used to allow fine positioning of the system. Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Micro PIV System The objective lens, nearest the subject under observation, provides a magnified real image of the object. The relay lens functions in a way similar to the eyepiece found in a compound microscope. The eyepiece magnifies the real image provided by the objective lens, and yields a virtual image appropriate for the human eye. In the case of the micro PIV assembly, however, the CCD camera plays the role of the human eye. The microscope focusing body is provided as a solution to the focusing procedure. Depending on the desired magnification, the user can choose an appropriate objective lens. The working distance depends on the magnification factor and the bigger the magnification the smaller the length of the working distance. The main advantage of objectives with large working distances is that they can accommodate incident illumination from above the subject under investigation. TSI microPIV system allow more space and flexibility on accessing the flow apparatus. To obtain successful measurements in a micro flow field, it is necessary to use seeding particles that emit light at a different wavelength than that of the laser. The reason is that reflection from the subject will be very strong that the scattered light overwhelms the particle images on the CCD camera. Therefore, fluorescent particles on the order of 1μm are used as tracers in the vast majority of the micro PIV applications. These particles absorb the green illumination light (λ = 532 nm), and emit a distribution of red light with a peak emission taking place at λ = 610 nm. The emitted light is imaged through the objective and the relay lenses and passed to a high pass optical filter (>550 nm), where the green light from background reflections is filtered out and the red fluorescence from the micron particles is recorded onto the PowerViewTM CCD camera.

Rotating Machinery Flow in a high-speed compressor
Improving the efficiency of in turbomachines requires understanding the flow field occurring within rotating machinery. Although average flow field measurements provide a great deal of insight into the performance of the machines, there are many unsteady flow phenomena occurring in the complex flow fields encountered in turbomachines which may significantly impact the steady state flow. The instantaneous planar velocity measurements obtained with PIV make it an attractive technique for use in the study of the complex flow fields encountered in turbomachinery. Measurements using a Nd:YAG laser based PIV system have been carried out in a single stage cm diameter transonic axial compressor facility at NASA Lewis. Measurements were obtained in the blade to blade rotor passage (36 blades) at a rotational speed of 17,128 rpm. Under these operating conditions a shock wave forms off the blade leading edge. A bow wave also forms off each blade extending outward from each blade tip. A specially constructed light sheet delivery system using a periscope type configuration was employed to illuminate the flow region in the rotor passage. A 1K x 1K pixel cross-correlation CCD camera utilizing the frame straddling technique was used to acquire the particle images. A once-per-rev signal on the rotor was used to trigger image acquisition and laser pulse triggering. The camera image acquisition and laser pulsing were all software controlled through the Synchronizer. Courtesy: NASA - Lewis Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

IC Engine PowerView PIV Measurements
A two component PowerView PIV system was set up on a motored Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) internal combustion engine such that the light sheet formed a vertical slice through the diameter of the cylinder. The PIVCAM digital camera was oriented perpendicular to the light sheet and phase-locked images were captured at multiple crank angles. A once-per-revolution signal from the engine was used to trigger the synchronization electronics of the PIV system. Olive oil that was atomized using a 9307 oil droplet generator and fed in through the intake port of the engine was used to seed the flow. The goal of the experiments were to quantify the flow fields as various crank angle positions during the intake and compression strokes. Mixing of the fuel was of great concern as it greatly effects the performance of the engine. Two intake port configurations were used: 1) an unmodified, dual valve intake port configuration ; and 2) swirl generators added to the intake ports upstream of the valves.

IC Engine PowerView PIV Measurements
These results show the phase-averaged results from a GDI motored engine with unmodified intake ports. A total of 50 phase-locked measurements at each crank-angle position were used to compute the averaged flow fields. The movie shows phase-average velocity fields at various crank-angle positions. The color of the vectors if proportional to the local vorticity and the total circulation for each phase-averaged velocity field is shown to the right in each frame. Note that a relatively strong coherent structure forms in the left hand portion of the flow field downstream of the intake valves. Mixing appears to be significant during the intake portion of the engine stroke. However, the flow field is relatively “quiet” during the compression stroke and further mixing appears to be subdued. When swirl generators were added to the intake ports, a large scale vortex persists throughout the intake and compression stroke. As a results performance of the engine was enhance due to the increased mixing. Courtesy: MSU Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

GDI Internal Combustion Engine PowerView PIV Measurements
For the unmodified and modified intake port cases, the total circulation was computed for each of the phase-averaged velocity fields and plotted against crank angle. For the modified intake port case, the circulation was significantly enhanced when compared to the unmodified case. Hence, there is a strong correlation between circulation and how well mixing occurs inside the combustion chamber and how well the engine performs. Courtesy: MSU Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Flow in an IC Engine The very first PIV system supplied by TSI was used for measurements in an IC engine In-cylinder flow in an IC engine, Velocity around 30 m/s, vectors, large format camera. PIV is ideal for a periodic flow such as in the IC engine. Image capture of the entire region is accomplished for various crank angle positions. The image fields obtained at one angle can then be ensemble averaged. Most of these experiments are done in motored engines. Optical access is a challenge. Transparent pistons or heads are generally required. For measurements in firing engines seed particles that can survive the temperature are required. Metal oxides (Titanium dioxide, for example) are often used for seeding. Courtesy: General Motors Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Measurements in an IC Engine
50 mJ/pulse dual YAG laser is used for studying the flow in the cross section of a motored IC engine. The cross section is imaged through a transparent piston. The swirl velocities in the CS plane are around at m/s. Metal particles (less than 5 microns) are used for seed. 1KX1K cross correlation camera is used with a Dt = 5 microsecond. The small time interval is required to capture image pairs when there is strong out-of-plane motion. Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Measurements in flames
Flame stabilization is an issue of considerable importance to turbulent combustor design. Investigation of the flame stabilization mechanisms are carried out using a Nd:YAG based PIV system. The 532 nm output of the laser is formed into a 250 mm thick light sheet and passed through of the test section. Particle images were captured using a 1K x 1K CCD camera. The velocity vector field and associated flow properties are calculated from the particle image displacements. Figure shows the instantaneous velocity vector field in a lifted, turbulent CH4 jet flame at a Reynolds number of The region enclosed by the solid red line and originating from top of velocity vector field indicates high temperature flame zone. The most upstream location of the high-temperature region defines the flame stabilization point. It can be seen the velocities near the flame stabilization point are significantly reduced and typically less than 0.4 m/sec. in the vector field shown. The velocity field in a lifted, turbulent CH4 jet flame was studied over a range of Reynolds numbers from 7000 to 20,000. Courtesy: Sandia Labs Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Channel Flow This is one of the early applications of PIV. Uniform water channel flow, 1850 vectors, Dual YAG, 35 mm film, Mirror image shift, 1 m/s. PIV is an ideal technique to unmask hidden turbulent structure. In a relatively simple channel flow, one can subtract the global mean value to look at the structure of turbulence. Time averaged techniques such as thermal anemometry and LDV cannot provide such detail. (Note: Mirror image shifting is a way of introducing an artificial displacement of the second image. This is used with autocorrelation analysis approach). Courtesy: University of Illinois Copyright© 2002 TSI Incorporated

Water flow behind a propeller Near wake: axial velocity field
Measurements in the flow field behind a propeller An experimental investigation of a five-blade propeller wake behind a ship model was performed using Stereo Particle Image Velocimetry (stereo-PIV) in a large free surface cavitation tunnel. Investigation of the wake at different longitudinal stations and its evolution in phase with the propeller pointed out the capability of stereo-PIV in resolving the complexity of the flow field. Phase-averaged results provide a detailed picture of the nature of the flow field. The blade viscous wake, which develops from the blade surface boundary layers, the trailing vortex sheets that are due to the radial gradient of the bound circulation, and the velocity fluctuation distributions were identified. The complex interaction between the hull wake and propeller was described through the evolution of the mean velocity components and the velocity fields.
