Reverse flow (i.e. flow in the direction opposite to the free stream) inside a channel occurs when an obstruction is placed at certain positions near the near to the channel, placed in another wider channel. In this paper the reverse flow in a duct (diameter D) with an obstruction at the front (which is a disc), is investigated using PIV. The gap g between the obstruction and the entry to the duct is systematically varied and it is found that maximum reverse flow occurs at a g/D value of 0.5. The flow is stagnant around g/D of 1.25 and forward flow occurs for g/D values of 1.5 and above.

Transient and asymmetric density distributions have been investigated by a digital speckle tomography with a novel integration method. Multiple CCD images captured movements of speckles in three angles of view simultaneously because the flows were asymmetric and unsteady. The speckle movements which have been formed by a ground glass between no flow and downward butane flow from an elliptical nozzle have been calculated by a cross-correlation tracking method so that those distances can be transferred to deflection angles of laser rays for density gradients. A novel integration method has been developed to obtain projection data from the deflection angles for the speckle tomography. The unsteady density fields have been reconstructed from the accurate projection values by the digital speckle tomography method using the developed integration method.

In this paper, a small supersonic wind tunnel is designed and built to study the flow characteristics of a supersonic impulse turbine. The flow is visualized by means of a single pass Schlieren system. The supersonic cascade with 2-dimensional supersonic nozzle was tested over a wide range of pressure ratio. Highly complicated flow patterns including shocks, nozzle-cascade interaction and shock boundary layer interactions are observed.

A problem on the sloshing flow of highly-viscous fluid in a rectangular box was revisited by both of theoretical approach and experimental visualization method. Based on the theoretical prediction that a linear shape of free surface is prevailing in bulk zone, it has been studied an analogy between a near wall coating flow in sloshing problem and dip coating flow in Landau-Levich problem. Phenomenological observation confirms that, in the case of highly-viscous fluid, I.e., R_e ≪ 1, viscous dominant near-wall flow in sloshing problem is identical to dip coating flow generated by drag-out of the plate being in both motion of vertical translation and horizontal rotation.

In this study, a scaled model chamber was built to investigate ventilation characteristics of the hood room in LNG carrier. Experimental study was performed in model by visualization equipment with laser apparatus. Four different kinds of measuring area were selected as experimental condition Instant simultaneous velocity vectors at whole field were measured by 2-D PIV system and its software adopting two-frame grey-level cross correlation algorithm. The flow pattern reveals the large scale counter-clockwise forced-vortex rotation at center area.

The objective of this study is to analyse the flow field in the branching duct by visualizing the flow phenomena using the PIV system. A bifurcation model is fabricated with transparent acrylic resin to visualize the whole flow field with the PIV system. Water was used as the working fluid and the conifer powder as the tracer particles. The single-frame and two-frame methods of the PIV system and 2-frame of the grey level correlation method are applied to obtain the velocity vectors from the images captured in the flow filed. The velocity distributions in a lid-driven cavity flow are compared with the so-called standard experimental data, which was obtained from by 4-frame method in order to validate experimental results of the PIV measurements. The flow patterns of a Newtonian fluid in a branching duct were successfully visualized by using the PIV system and the sub-pixel and the area interpolation method were used to obtain the final velocity vectors. The velocity vectors obtained from the PIV system are in good agreement with the numerical results of the 3-dimensional branch flow. The results of numerical analyses and the PIV experiments for the three-dimensional flows in the branch ing duct show the recirculation zone distal to the branching point and the sizes of the recirculation length and height of the tow different methods are in good agreement.

Resin transfer molding(RTM) as a composite manufacturing process is currently of great interest in the aerospace industry requiring high performance composite parts. In this study, an analysis of mold filling in the RTM process was carried out by numerical simulation using finite element/control volume technique. Experimental work for the visualization of resin flow through fibrous preform was also conducted in order to quantitatively measure the permeabilities of the fiber mats and to evaluate the validity of the developed numerical code. The different types of fiber mats and silicon oils were selected as reinforcements and resin materials, respectively. The effects of fibrous preform structure, mold geometry, and preplaced insert on the flow front patterns during mold filling were examined by integrating the model predictions and experimental results. The flow fronts predicted by numerical simulation were in good agreement with those observed experimentally. However, according to the regions of the mold, some deviations between predicted and observed flow fronts could be found because of non-uniform fiber volume fraction. Weldline locations for the resin flow through round insert preplaced in the mold could be qualitatively deduced based on predicted flow fronts.
