Separated Flows Over Non-slender Delta Wings
… characteristic of such geometries. First, stereo particle image velocimetry and surface pressure are used to reconstruct the flow the over a delta wing at steady-state. Vortex tilting is revealed to play an important role in lift generation at angles of attack near maximum lift. Coherent …

Left Ventricle Assist Device
… of refractive index matching to perform particle image velocity. Matching the refractive index of the phantom with the medium is critical to avoid distortion and refraction of the light. Glycerol water was found to be an effective medium for refractive index matching. Overall, the …

Experimental study of turbulent boundary layer flows over forward facing steps with different surface conditions.
… on turbulent flows over forward facing steps. A particle image velocimetry technique was employed to conduct field velocity measurements at the mid-plane of the test channel at selected locations downstream to 68 step heights. Three surface conditions were investigated. A reference smooth acrylic …

Flow and heat transfer characteristics of turbulent swirling impinging jets [thesis]
… generated swirl. The research focuses on the velocity field, upstream near the nozzle exit plane as well as further downstream, and the way in which it affects heat transfer at the impingement plane, both under transient and steady-state conditions. Boundary conditions at the nozzle exit were …
