Conference ·
OSTI ID:5617867
Papers are presented on optical techniques, speckle techniques, observation methods, image processing, boundary layers and separated flows, stratified flows and the mixing layer, vortices and wakes, jets, supersonic and hypersonic flows, the velocity field, two-phase flows, heat transfer, and engines. Specific attention is paid to applications including shear layer stability in axisymmetric backstep flows, visualization of the pulsating flow past aortic prostheses, and flow visualization by dye and by optical interferometry. Other topics include photochromic flow visualization in liquid-liquid two-phase flow, shear flow patterns analyzed by video systems, the visualization of longitudinal vortices in stagnation flows, and the development of the Karman vortex due to buoyant force in opposing flow.
