Completion of the Project: 1-Dimensional Particle Tracking Velocimetry in Supersonic Flows

Abstract

The ability to map fluid velocity fields in three-dimensions would provide researchers with a much greater understanding of a wide variety of flows. To date, there is no such systems that can do this reliably for a wide variety of flow parameters. For that purpose, some researchers have developed methods using a single camera ( I) or several cameras (generally 3 or 4 using the epipolar) (2, 3, 4, 5).
