Tracer Particle

Particles used in gas flows
Gas flows more difficult to seed than liquid flows
- Small liquid droplets will either evaporate (bad) or coat flow apparatus (bad)
- Particles must be smaller because of the greater density difference
(Melling 1997, Meas. Sci. Technol.)

Illumination

Light sources usually used in PIV systems
Helium-Neon lasers
–
Continuous wave laser
–
Extremely monochromatic with wave
length of =632.8 nm
–
High temporal coherence (typical
coherence length of 1030 cm)
–
Spatially coherent
–
Unidirectional, parallel to the body of
the laser
–
Beam of Gaussian intensity
distribution
–
Cheap but not very powerful
–
Traditionally used for evaluation of
PIV images
14
Illumination

Light sources usually used in PIV systems
Argon-ion lasers
–
Gas laser
–
Continuous wave
–
Multiple wavelengths with very
narrow bandwidths
–
two dominant wavelengths, 514nm
and 488nm, make up about 67% of
the total beam output power
–
Single line operation possible by
inserting prisms, diffraction gratings
and other optical devices to "filter
out" the unwanted wavelengths
–
Powerful enough to illuminate
particles in PIV tests

Illumination

Light sources usually used in PIV systems
Copper-vapor lasers (Cu lasers)
– High pulse speed, can be considered either CW or individual pulses
for PIV particle illumination
– Wavelength within the yellow and green spectrum
– High average power (Typically 130 W)


Light sources usually used in PIV systems
Nd:YAG laser
– Most popular solid-state laser for PIV
– Available wavelengths: 1064, 532, 355, 266 nm etc.
– Short laser pulses (~5 ns)
– Slow repeat rate (10-15 Hz)
– Operated in triggered mode with quality switch (Q-switch)
– Dual-cavity configuration enables short time interval between laser
pulses

Example:
- Xe (xenon) flash lamps have high rep rates (kHz) and short pulse durations
- Overhead projector lamps using CCD camera or spinning wheel to gate
LED’s (Light Emitting Diodes)
–
Available in various colors
–

With three cylindrical lenses (one with negative focal length)
-
Diverging lens used first to avoid focal lines
Limited light sheet height
19
Illumination

Light sheet optics
With two spherical lenses and one cylindrical lens
-
More versatile illumination system
Focal line exists but has a relatively large extension

Illumination

Light sheet optics

-
Independently change of light sheet height and thickness
Smaller light sheet than beam diameter possible
Not suitable for high power lasers
