Description
Results from several applications of particle image velocimetry (PIV) to unsteady flows at a laboratory scale have been published, and commercial products are now available for more general laboratory use, but for certain industrially important applications, reliable equipment is often available only from in-house research and development teams. This PIV handbookis intended to transfer know-how from PIV development laboratories to end-users in industry and universities. The book discusses the scientific and technical aspects required to set up a PIV system, allows users to assess the problems involved in the application of PIV, and enables them to design, optimize, and use PIV systems to meet their special needs.
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews of the second edition:
"This second edition of a text first published in 1998 represents a comprehensive reference written by noted experts in the field on the particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique. . Particle Image Velocimetry . represents the most comprehensive reference on the PIV technique to date. . the second edition of this book will undoubted serve the PIV community, novice and advanced users . ." (Kenneth T. Christensen, AIAA Journal, Vol. 46 (11), November, 2008)
