A System for Highly Resolved Measurements of the Interaction of 3D Unsteady Flows with Aerodynamic Surfaces

Abstract

The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) is designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. Universities to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in selected technical areas of importance to national defense. DURIP funding provides for the acquisition of research equipment and instrumentation for this purpose. This proposal is for the purchase of a pressure sensitive paint system, upgrades to current digital particle image velocimetry equipment, high bandwidth pressure transducers, signal-conditioning/amplifying system, miniature pressure scanners and a microphone system. The P.I., Professor Jesse Little, of the University of Arizona will use the equipment to augment and enhance research capabilities in the area of fluid dynamics relevant to control of aerodynamic flows.
