Implementation of drop-based oil flow interferometry to estimate wall shear stress in three-dimensional flows
This thesis introduces a simplified drop based oil-film interferometry (OFI) approach using silicone oil droplets to measure wall shear stress in three-dimensional flows. Wall shear stress is a critical parameter in fluid dynamics, significantly affecting aerodynamic drag and turbulent flow …
