(3 credit hours,
Registration No.: 173917) |
|
This
course introduces graduate students in the fields of Mechanical, Aerospace,
Civil, and Chemical Engineering to the basics of advanced optical flow
diagnostics concepts, principles, and techniques. A range of available
techniques will be reviewed, with the primary focus on the state-of-the-art Particle
Image Velocimetry (PIV). The
course emphasizes hands-on experience and basic and practical knowledge. The
scope will be tailored according to the needs of the students. Topics may
include optics, lasers, image acquisition and processing, light scattering,
holographic measurements, laser Doppler Velocimetry, fluorescence techniques,
flow visualization and hot-wire anemometry. Measurement quantities may
include fluid flow velocity fields, temperature, pressure, species
concentration, as well as disperse-phase information in two-phase flows. The course will be delivered through lectures, topic research and reviews, and hands-on experiments (PIV measurement of a typical flow). |
