Particle Image Velocimetry Project
Design and Installation of a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) Experiment for Undergraduate Laboratories
2020
Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is commonly used diagnostic technology to analyze flow over various surfaces to better understand velocity and vorticity profiles. This PIV system implemented at UCF into undergraduate laboratory-based courses is water-based with a built-in analyzation process to assist students in learning about PIV. The system is designed for undergraduate-level experiments so students can begin working with a PIV system early in their undergraduate career.
