Development of Fast-Responding, Luminescence-enhanced Microbeads for the Digital Luminescent Particle Image Barometry Thermometry and Velocimetry System

Abstract

The objective of this exploratory proposal is to develop a new generation of TSBeads/PSBeads/TPSBeads with significant improvements in response times & brightness. Such a development is non-trivial & not incremental, requiring novel approaches/methods for creating the particles from a molecular level, & then once achieved, develop a method for their mass production. This allows for the global instantaneous measurements of temperature/pressure/velocity fields simultaneously within 2D through time of fast occurring events, thus making this measurement method truly transformative. Once developed, it will be used in future research projects for investigations and better understanding turbulent flows (turbulent heat transfer mixing, modeling of pressure-strain rate, turbulent energy flux, LES SGS modeling, acoustics & noise generation, hydroacoustics of underwater vehicles; energy conservation through the promotion of better designed energy efficient devices;& better understanding of sound generation within the larynx.
