(DURIP-FY20) HIGH SPEED IMAGING FOR AERODYNAMIC AND STRUCTURAL MEASUREMENTS IN HIGH SPEED FLOWS

Abstract

Funds are requested for a high-speed imaging system to support both aerodynamic and structural measurements in high speed flows. The system is comprised of high-speed cameras, optics, light sources and electronics. The equipment will enable the acquisition of time-resolved focused, standard and background oriented schlieren imaging in a variety of high-speed flows. When coupled with existing hardware and software, it will also enable time-resolved digital image correlation (2D in-plane deformation or full 3D surface measurements) resulting in surface strain tensors. The measurement suite will complement existing facilities and measurement systems targeting fundamental studies of shock-boundary layer, shock-shock and fluid-structure interaction. It also serves as a stepping stone to future capabilities including time-resolved PIV.
