PIV for granular flows 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) has been adapted for use in measuring particle displacement and velocity fields in granular
flows. “Seeding” is achieved by using light and dark particles. The granular flow adjacent to a clear bounding wall is illuminated
with a strobe, and the recorded images are analyzed using standard PIV techniques. The application is demonstrated by measuring
convection rolls in a granular bed undergoing vertical oscillations. The PIV measured displacement is consistent with displacement
of a marked layer of particles.

A common source of error in particle image velocimetry (PIV) is the presence of bright spots within the images. These bright
spots are characterized by grayscale intensities much greater than the mean intensity of the image and are typically generated
by intense scattering from seed particles. The displacement of bright spots can dominate the cross-correlation calculation
within an interrogation window, and may thereby bias the resulting velocity vector. An efficient and easy-to-implement image-enhancement
procedure is described to improve PIV results when bright spots are present. The procedure, called Intensity Capping, imposes
a user-specified upper limit to the grayscale intensity of the images. The displacement calculation then better represents
the displacement of all particles in an interrogation window and the bias due to bright spots is reduced. Four PIV codes and a large set of experimental
and simulated images were used to evaluate the performance of Intensity Capping. The results indicate that Intensity Capping
can significantly increase the number of valid vectors from experimental image pairs and reduce displacement error in the
analysis of simulated images. A comparison with other PIV image-enhancement techniques shows that Intensity Capping offers
competitive performance, low computational cost, ease of implementation, and minimal modification to the images. 相似文献

The influence of peak-locking errors on turbulence statistics computed from ensembles of PIV data is considered. PIV measurements are made in the streamwise–wall-normal plane of turbulent channel flow. The PIV images are interrogated in three distinct ways, generating ensembles of velocity fields with absolute, moderate, and minimal peak locking. Turbulence statistics computed for all three ensembles of data indicate a general sensitivity to peak locking in the single-point statistics, except for the mean velocity profile. Peak-locking errors propagate into the fluctuations of velocity, rendering single-point statistics inaccurate when severe peak locking is present. Multi-point correlations of both streamwise and wall-normal velocity are also found to be influenced by severe levels of peak locking. The displacement range of the measurement, defined by the PIV time delay, appears to affect the influence of peak-locking errors on turbulence statistics. Smaller displacement ranges, particularly those that produce displacement fluctuations that are less than one pixel in magnitude, yield inaccurate turbulence statistics in the presence of peak locking. 相似文献

A kilohertz frame rate cinemagraphic PIV system for laboratory-scale turbulent and unsteady flows 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A kilohertz frame rate cinemagraphic particle image velocimetry (PIV) system has been developed for acquiring time-resolved
image sequences of laboratory-scale gas and liquid-phase turbulent flows. Up to 8000 instantaneous PIV images per second are
obtained, with sequence lengths exceeding 4000 images. The two-frame cross-correlation method employed precludes directional
ambiguity and has a higher signal-to-noise ratio than single-frame autocorrelation or cross-correlation methods, facilitating
acquisition of long uninterrupted sequences of valid PIV images. Low and high velocities can be measured simultaneously with
similar accuracy by adaptively cross-correlating images with the appropriate time delay. Seed particle illumination is provided
by two frequency-doubled Nd:YAG lasers producing Q-switched pulses at the camera frame rate. PIV images are acquired using
a 16 mm high-speed rotating prism camera. Frame-to-frame registration is accomplished by imaging two pairs of crossed lines
onto each frame and aligning the digitized image sequence to these markers using image processing algorithms. No flow disturbance
is created by the markers because only their image is projected to the PIV imaging plane, with the physical projection device
residing outside the flow field. The frame-to-frame alignment uncertainty contributes 2% to the overall velocity measurement
uncertainty, which is otherwise comparable to similar film-based PIV methods.

In this paper digital processing techniques for PIV (Partical Image Velocimetry) using double-exposed particle images have
been studied. It has been found that a pattern matching technique is significantly superior to the traditional autocorrelation
method in the case that a large particle displacement between the double exposures is present on the image. In PIV using double-exposed
images, the image shifting technique is usually used to solve the directional ambiguity problem. The performance of PIV using
autocorrelation technique is dependent on the flow speed and the amount of image shift applied. This dependence, for example,
causes a difficulty of autocorrelation in flows close to a solid boundary. The present study shows that a pattern matching
technique eliminates such a difficulty. At the same signal-to-noise ratio, the pattern matching techndique has a better spatial
resolution than that of autocorrelation. In concert with the pattern matching technique, PID (Particle Image Distortion) can
be applied to double-exposed images, further improving the reliability and accuracy of velocity estimates of PIV in the presence
of large velocity gradients. Generally speaking, PIP-matching and PID extend the validity of PIV using double-exposed images.
The total processing time required by the PIV using the pattern matching technique and one PID iteration is of the same order
as that required by the PIV using autocorrelation.

An extension of two color particle image velocimetry (PIV) is described where the color images are recorded onto a single
high-resolution (3060×2036 pixel) color CCD sensor. Unlike mono-color CCD sensors, this system not only eliminates the processing
time and the subsequent digitization time of film-based PIV but also resolves the directional ambiguity of the velocity vector
without using conventional image-shifting techniques. For comparing the spatial resolutions of film and CCD data, a calibration
experiment is conducted by recording the speckle pattern onto 35 mm color film and using a CCD sensor under identical conditions.
This technique has been successfully implemented for simulated turbine film-cooling flows in order to obtain a more detailed
characterization of the coolant-injection phenomenon and its interaction with freestream disturbances.

In this communication, the Digital Image Compression (DIC) – PIV system is introduced. The present system allows the measurement
of mean and RMS velocities in turbulent flow fields, using JPEG digital image compression technique for on-line recording
of thousands of images. The decompression and subsequent analysis of the images, performed by means of digital cross-correlation
technique, is carried out off-line. Errors incurred by the application of the compression method are assessed and discussed.
The effect of the compression is firstly analysed by linearly traversing (synthetic) computer-generated PIV-images at constant
velocity. Secondly, accurate LDA measurements and data from direct numerical simulation (DNS) are used as a basis for the
analysis in a low Reynolds number open water channel flow. The results show that excellent agreement between LDA and DIC–PIV
measurements for mean and RMS velocities can be achieved using a compression factor up to 12.

This paper presents a PIV (particle image velocimetry) image processing method for measuring flow velocities around an arbitrarily
moving body. This image processing technique uses a contour-texture analysis based on user-defined textons to determine the
arbitrarily moving interface in the particle images. After the interface tracking procedure is performed, the particle images
near the interface are transformed into Cartesian coordinates that are related to the distance from the interface. This transformed
image always has a straight interface, so the interrogation windows can easily be arranged at certain distances from the interface.
Accurate measurements near the interface can then be achieved by applying the window deformation algorithm in concert with
PIV/IG (interface gradiometry). The displacement of each window is evaluated by using the window deformation algorithm and
was found to result in acceptable errors except for the border windows. Quantitative evaluations of this method were performed
by applying it to computer-generated images and actual PIV measurements. 相似文献

Spatial resolution of PIV for the measurement of turbulence 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0

Recent technological advancements have made the use of particle image velocimetry (PIV) more widespread for studying turbulent
flows over a wide range of scales. Although PIV does not threaten to make obsolete more mature techniques, such as hot-wire
anemometry (HWA), it is justifiably becoming an increasingly important tool for turbulence research. This paper assesses the
ability of PIV to resolve all relevant scales in a classical turbulent flow, namely grid turbulence, via a comparison with
theoretical predictions as well as HWA measurements. Particular attention is given to the statistical convergence of mean
turbulent quantities and the spatial resolution of PIV. An analytical method is developed to quantify and correct for the
effect of the finite spatial resolution of PIV measurements. While the present uncorrected PIV results largely underestimate
the mean turbulent kinetic energy and energy dissipation rate, the corrected measurements agree to a close approximation with
the HWA data. The transport equation for the second-order structure function in grid turbulence is used to establish the range
of scales affected by the limited resolution. The results show that PIV, due to the geometry of its sensing domain, must meet
slightly more stringent requirements in terms of resolution, compared with HWA, in order to provide reliable measurements
in turbulence.

Background extraction from double-frame PIV images 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study presents a simple image pre-processing scheme to extract background information from double-frame particle image velocimetry (PIV) images. Everything that stays stagnant in the image (e.g., image background and light reflections from stationary objects) is assumed to be a source of disturbance and is removed by subtracting the second frame of the image pair from the first frame. This yields a single frame difference image, which is transferred back to a background extracted double-frame image. After the procedure the background in the image does not correlate with itself anymore and therefore a bias error in PIV analysis towards zero displacement is avoided. The simulations show that the procedure conserves the profile of tracer particle images when a displacement between the frames is larger than a particle image size. The performance of this procedure is emphasized with various examples, and extensions of the procedure are introduced. The extended procedure extracts background objects that move between the image frames, e.g. dispersed phase particles in a two-phase flow or laser light sheet reflections from moving objects. 相似文献

A new technique based on wavelet transform is applied to bidimensional velocity fields obtained by particle image velocimetry
(PIV) measurements, in order to extract and characterize swirling motion associated with coherent structures. The proposed
technique is based on the selectivity property of the wavelet transform and permits the detection of regions of the flow field
associated with coherent structures and their spatial localization. Furthermore, being the method based on the analysis of
the local energy content at separated scales, it is possible to extract the typical wavenumber associated with structures
and therefore the typical length-scale. The procedure is validated by the application to velocity vector fields obtained from
PIV measurements in different flow conditions and turbulence levels. Results are compared with those obtained by other more
standard procedures, and the advantages and limitations of the proposed method are then discussed.

Measurement of fully-developed turbulent pipe flow with digital particle image velocimetry 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

A new and unique high-resolution image acquisition system for digital particle image velocimetry (DPIV) in turbulent flows is used for the measurement of fully-developed turbulent pipe flow at a Reynolds number of 5300. The flow conditions of the pipe flow match those of a direct numerical simulation (DNS) and of measurements with conventional (viz., photographic) PIV and with laser-Doppler velocimetry (LDV). This experiment allows a direct and detailed comparison of the conventional and digital implementations of the PIV method for a non-trivial unsteady flow. The results for the turbulence statistics and power spectra show that the level of accuracy for DPIV is comparable to that of conventional PIV, despite a considerable difference in the interrogation pixel resolution, i.e. 32 × 32 (DPIV) versus 256 × 256 (PIV). This result is in agreement with an earlier analytical prediction for the measurement accuracy. One of the advantages of DPIV over conventional PIV is that the interrogation of the DPIV images takes only a fraction of the time needed for the interrogation of the PIV photographs. 相似文献

As testified by a previous article (Astarita and Cardone in Exp Fluids 38:233–243, 2005), a critical point that can influence significantly the accuracy of image deformation methods (IDM) for particle image velocimetry (PIV) is the interpolation scheme (IS) used in the reconstruction of deformed images. In the cited paper the effect of noise has been neglected and for this reason in this follow-up paper the influence of the IS, in the presence of noise, on both accuracy and spatial resolution is studied. Performance assessment is conducted using synthetic images with particles of Gaussian shape and with constant and sinusoidal displacement fields. Both the local and the top hat moving average approaches are investigated and the modulation transfer function, the total and bias errors have been used to evaluate the performances of IDMs for PIV applications. The results show that, when a high noise level is present in the images, the influence of the IS is less relevant than what was shown by Astarita and Cardone (Exp Fluids 38:233–243, 2005). 相似文献

Particle image velocimetry (PIV) has become a popular non-intrusive tool for measuring various types of flows. However, when measuring three dimensional flows with 2D PIV, there is inherent measurement error due to out-of-plane motion. Errors in the measured velocity field propagate to turbulence statistics. Since this can distort the overall flow characteristics, it is important to understand the effect of this out-of-plane error. In this study, the effect of out-of-plane motion on turbulence statistics is quantified. Using forced isotropic turbulence direct numerical simulation (DNS) flow field data provided by the Johns Hopkins turbulence database (JHTDB), synthetic image tests are performed. Turbulence statistics such as turbulence kinetic energy, dissipation rate, Taylor microscale, Kolmogorov scale, and velocity correlations are calculated. Various test cases were simulated while controlling three main parameters which affect the out-of-plane motion: PIV interrogation window size, camera inter-frame time, and laser sheet thickness. The amount of out-of-plane motion was first quantified, and then the error variation according to these parameters was examined. This information can be useful when examining fully three dimensional flows such as homogeneous and isotropic turbulence via 2D PIV. 相似文献

Turbulence statistics from optical whole-field measurements in particle-laden turbulence 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Obtaining turbulence statistics in particle-laden flows using optical whole-field measurements is complicated due to the inevitable data loss. The effects of this data loss are first studied using synthetic data and it is shown that the interpolation of missing data leads to biased results for the turbulence spectrum and its derived quantities. It is also shown that the use of overlapping interrogation regions in images with a low image density can lead to biased results due to oversampling. The slotting method is introduced for the processing of particle image velocimetry (PIV) data fields with missing data. Next to this, it is extended to handle unstructured data. Using experimental data obtained by a dual-camera PIV/PTV (particle tracking velocimetry) system in particle-laden grid turbulence, the performance of the new approach is studied. Some preliminary two-phase results are presented to indicate the significant improvement in the statistics, as well as to demonstrate the unique capabilities of the system.An erratum to this article can be found at

The turbulence structure of a horizontal channel flow with microbubbles is experimentally investigated using combined particle image velocimetry (PIV) in order to clarify the mechanism of drag reduction caused by microbubbles. A new system which simultaneously measures the liquid phase and the dispersed bubbles is proposed, based on a combination of particle tracking velocimetry (PTV), laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) and the shadow image technique (SIT). To accurately obtain the velocity of the liquid phase, tracer particles which overlap with the bubble shadow images are almost entirely eliminated in the post-processing. Finally, the turbulence characteristics of the flow field are presented, including measurements for both phases, and the bubble effect on the turbulence is quantified. 相似文献

The uncertainty of any measurement is the interval in which one believes the actual error lies. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurement error depends on the PIV algorithm used, a wide range of user inputs, flow characteristics, and the experimental setup. Since these factors vary in time and space, they lead to nonuniform error throughout the flow field. As such, a universal PIV uncertainty estimate is not adequate and can be misleading. This is of particular interest when PIV data are used for comparison with computational or experimental data. A method to estimate the uncertainty from sources detectable in the raw images and due to the PIV calculation of each individual velocity measurement is presented. The relationship between four error sources and their contribution to PIV error is first determined. The sources, or parameters, considered are particle image diameter, particle density, particle displacement, and velocity gradient, although this choice in parameters is arbitrary and may not be complete. This information provides a four-dimensional “uncertainty surface” specific to the PIV algorithm used. After PIV processing, our code “measures" the value of each of these parameters and estimates the velocity uncertainty due to the PIV algorithm for each vector in the flow field. The reliability of our methodology is validated using known flow fields so the actual error can be determined. Our analysis shows that, for most flows, the uncertainty distribution obtained using this method fits the confidence interval. An experiment is used to show that systematic uncertainties are accurately computed for a jet flow. The method is general and can be adapted to any PIV analysis, provided that the relevant error sources can be identified for a given experiment and the appropriate parameters can be quantified from the images obtained. 相似文献

A new 3D PIV system combining holography and stereoscopic PIV is presented. The double pulsed holographic recording relies
on the forward scattering of particles in the laser sheet. The holographic images of the particles are used for a stereoscopic
PIV analysis. An imaging system with a rightangle prism is used to acquire a stereoscopic pair of images. The application
of the system to the vortex flow from an inclined delta wing shows the prospects and limitations of the technique.

The confidence limits characterising estimates of mean velocity and turbulence intensity obtained by PIV are discussed.

The turbulence and temperature field of Bunsen-type turbulent lean methane/air flames has been investigated using planar laser Rayleigh scattering (PLRS) and stereo particle image velocimetry (stereo PIV). Temporally averaged reaction progress variable plots have been computed from PLRS measurements in order to provide a basis with regards to the verification of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models. Turbulence was characterised by stereo PIV in one plane for all three velocity components. Averaged velocity fields have been calculated, as well as Reynolds-decomposed fluctuation vector fields. Conditioned root mean square (RMS) values of the turbulent fluctuations in terms of unburnt and burnt gas could be determined by making use of the information gained from a threshold setting procedure in the PIV raw images. Furthermore, several length scales were measured indirectly from PIV vector plots. In this context, all integral length scales being accessible with stereo PIV were computed separately for the burnt and unburnt regions and were compared to each other. It could be observed that all integral length scales increased in the burnt zone. Additionally, the conditioned Taylor and Kolmogorov lengths have been extracted from the PIV field data, derived either from the zero-radius curvature of the correlation function or from common turbulence theory relations. 相似文献
