Abstract
A new GA-3D-PTV technique has been constructed to measure an impinging jet. The measurement system consists of three CCD cameras, Ar-ion laser, an image grabber and a host computer. GA (Genetic Algorithm) was used based on one-to-one correspondences in order to take advantage of the combinatorial optimization in tracking the pairs of the whole particles of the two images having a time interval. Two fitness functions were introduced in order to enhance the correspondences of the particles. One was based on a concept of the continuum theory and the other one was based on a minimum distance error. The constructed GA-3D-PTV system was applied in success to the measurement of flow characteristics of the impinging jet.
