Direct measurement of circulation using ultrasound
Ultrasound time-of-flight methods employing counter-propagating ultrasonic pulses are utilized for the direct measurement of circulation in vortical flows. Two schemes are described here which involve either a single straight path or a closed path. Both techniques are shown to result in time differences, between the counter-propagating pulses around the path, linearly proportional to the circul...
متن کاملDirect measurement of delta wing vortex circulation using ultrasound
The circulation around a closed path encompassing the primary vortex of stationary delta wings is investigated through the use of ultrasound. Ultrasonic pulses were propagated clockwise and counterclockwise along a fixed, closed path which was positioned perpendicular to the delta wing root chord lines. Circulation in the plane of the closed path was then determined from the transit time differ...
متن کاملThe Direct Measurement of Circulation in Free Surface Vortices
Ultrasonic teclmiques have been used to directly and non-intrusively measure the circulation of free surface vortices. All experiments were performed in a vertical cylindrical tank with a central drain and a tangential inlet The circulation was measured on a closed triangular path by measuring the difference in upstream and downstream transit-times. Circulation was measured as a function of the...
متن کاملUltrasound Measurement of Kidney Dimensions in Premature Neonates
Background Ultrasonography is a non-invasive and accurate diagnostic method to evaluate urinary system and its anomalies in the neonates. Kidney sonographic measurement can be used as an alternative method to estimate gestational age. The aim of this study was to measure kidney size in preterm neonates and to provide a guide reference for gestational age. <...
متن کاملThe application of discriminant analysis in differentiation of fibroadenoma and ductal carcinoma of breast tissue using ultrasound velocity measurement
Background: Ultrasound propagation velocity was measured experimentally in normal, fibroadenoma and ductal carcinoma breast tissues, in order to distinguish normal breast tissue from tumors. Materials and methods: In quantitative measurements of ultrasound velocity, 403 breast tissue images were selected, comprising 130 normal breast tissue, 130 fibroadenoma, and 143 ductal carcinoma tumors. Th...
