The Marriage of Optical, Tracer and Surface Indicator Techniques in Flow Visualization

The concept of uniting two or more flow visualization techniques is emphasized. Although this can be done, for a number of flow situations, using instrumentation and methods that have been available for many years, the use of modern technology and intruments makes such unions more easily realized. Some examples of this concept are discussed. Results are presented for a combined optical-(shadowgraph and schlieren) surface indicator (oil flow) technique; a versatile vapor screen technique using a CW laser; and a reversible dye technique. Whether used alone or united to the others the latter is especially valuable for use in a continuous wind tunnel since the surface flow patterns are erasable.
Handbook Of Flow Visualization

With contributions from some of the world's leading experts, the second edition of this classic reference compiles all major techniques of flow visualization and demonstrates their applications in all fields of science and technology. A new chapter has been added that covers flow visualization applications in large wide tunnels for airplane and automobile testing. Several important examples of applications are included. A second new chapter details the use of infrared (IR) cameras for detecting and observing the boundary layer transition in industrial wind tunnels and flight testing of commercial transport airplanes. A final new chapter has been added on multiphase flow and pulsed-light velocimetry.
