Facility Features, Working Principle and Specifications

Features Working Principle

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is a whole-flow-field technique providing instantaneous velocity vector measurements in a cross-section of a flow.

 

This technique being non-intrusive technique allows the application of PIV in high speed flows, boundary layer studies of fluids.
