Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within both the scientific and academic communities, the study and visualization of flow is an essential tool used to model fluid transport and mixing. Modern Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are used to successfully approximate real-world physics to reproduce dynamic flow behavior, however, from simulation to visualization, maintaining a high level of accuracy is fraught with obstacles. In this thesis, we address two major challenges to visualizing fluid flow data accurately. The first challenge, encountered during the simulation stage, is the inability of supercomputers to allow simulations to be saved at their native resolution. The second challenge, confronted in the post-processing stage, involves combating the substantial and discouraging computational expense associated with highly accurate particle-based visualization techniques. We begin by presenting a framework for detecting and accumulating flow characteristics during the particle advection process, aimed at optimizing the associated computational burden. Consequently, we provide evidence of a wealth of fluid flow knowledge that can be gained with little computational overhead. We then extend the detection of these flow transformation effects to the simulation stage, offering a novel compression algorithm designed to dynamically distribute the constrained budget set when writing simulation results to disk. The output focuses on flow deformation and rotation, thereby improving visualization accuracy in turbulent regions. Next, we describe the versatility of interpolation as a substitute for costly and iterative numerical integration. We present a method for categorizing salient flow features using only a sub- set of advected particles to interpolate the remaining domain information. Overall, the number of advection steps is drastically cut down and our method is able to better visualize features of interest with fewer particles. Building on this work, we eliminate advection entirely and develop an inter- active exploration environment based solely on interpolating trajectory position information. After achieving positive results in the visualization stage, we further explore the Lagrangian representation - a dense sampling of the flow field with particle trajectories - as an alternative output to CFD simulations. Through a series of comprehensive tests, we verify that the Lagrangian representation is less sensitive than traditional output to the unavoidable temporal compression that occurs when writing to disk. Subsequently, we demonstrate that particle trajectories extracted during the post- processing stage are more accurate, with the added benefit of increased performance and less disk space usage necessary to store the simulation output itself. The primary objective of our work is to advance the field of flow visualization, focusing on the challenges that arise when high accuracy is required. With CFD simulations growing ever more complex and many scientists within academia and industry turning to flow visualization, we provide solutions to help retain flow field accuracy while optimizing both the storage of simulation data on disk and the computational expense of particle-based visualization techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schlieren and shadowgraph techniques are basic and valuable tools in various scientific and engineering disciplines. They allow us to see the invisible: the optical inhomogeneities in transparent media like air, water, and glass that otherwise cause only ghostly distortions of our normal vision. These techniques are discussed briefly in many books and papers, but there is no up-to-date complete treatment of the subject before now. The book is intended as a practical guide for those who want to use these methods, as well as a resource for a broad range of disciplines where scientific visualization is important. The colorful 400-year history of these methods is covered in an extensive introductory chapter accessible to all readers.
Download or read book Flow Visualization in Materials Processing written by Tomomasa Uemura and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive review of particle image velocimetry (PIV) and particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) as tools for experimental fluid dynamics (EFD). It shares practical techniques for high-speed photography to accurately analyze multi-phase flows; in particular, it addresses the practical know-how involved in high-speed photography, including e.g. the proper setup for lights and illumination; optical systems to remove perspective distortion; and the density of tracer particles and their fluorescence in the context of PIV and PTV. In this regard, using the correct photographic technique plays a key role in the accurate analysis of the respective flow. Practical applications include bubble and liquid flow dynamics in materials processes agitated by gas injection at high temperatures, mixing phenomena due to jet-induced rotary sloshing, and wettability effects on the efficiency of the processes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particle image velocimetry, or PIV, refers to a class of methods used in experimental fluid mechanics to determine instantaneous fields of the vector velocity by measuring the displacements of numerous fine particles that accurately follow the motion of the fluid. Although the concept of measuring particle displacements is simple in essence, the factors that need to be addressed to design and implement PIV systems that achieve reliable, accurate, and fast measurements and to interpret the results are surprisingly numerous. The aim of this book is to analyze and explain them comprehensively.
