Abstract: | This work presents the application of particle image displacement velocimetry to the measurement of fluid velocities in a centrifugal pump diffuser. Measurements are taken at different operating points and allow to define the variation of radial and tangential velocity components along a pitch. They are further processed to determine the relative velocity and vorticity fields. Results are also compared with laser Doppler measurements taken in the same facility. |
