An acoustic technique for Lagrangian velocity measurements

Description : Ultrasonic transducers array can be used to track solid particles advected by a turbulent flow. The simultaneous use of four linear antennas of transducers gives the 3D position of the particles. The extraction of the Doppler frequency shift gives a precise estimation of velocity components. We desc...
