PIV-continued
PIV Fundamentals-abridged
-PIV measures whole velocity
fields by taking two images
shortly after each other and
calculating the distance
individual particles travelled
within this time. From the known
time difference and the
measured displacement, the
velocity can be calculated
Benefits of PIV
-Pitot tube, thermal
anemometers, laser Doppler
velocimetry,only measure velocity
at points of the flowPIV measures
entire cross section or volume of flow
