Abstract
Research on general particle image velocimetry (PIV) has been conducted extensively, but studies on granular PIV are relatively insufficient. In addition, the parameters used for analyzing granular PIV need to be optimized. In this study, we analyzed the error of velocity measurements based on the interrogation area (64-192 pixel), frame per second (30-120 FPS), and video resolution [ultrahigh definition (UHD) and high definition (HD)] within the velocity range typically measured in hoppers. The estimated errors of the granular PIV were below 5%, which is generally acceptable. However, considering the data reliability, the flow velocity in the hopper could be measured with less than 5% error at 120 FPS or higher in the HD resolution and 30 FPS or higher in the UHD resolution.
