nPIV velocity measurement of nanofluids in the near-wall region of a microchannel
Colloidal suspensions of nano-sized particles in a base fluid, nanofluids, have recently gained popularity as cooling fluids mainly due to their enhanced heat transfer capabilities. However, there is controversy in the literature on the reported properties of nanofluids and their applicability, especially since there is no fundamental understanding that explains these enhancements. A better und...
متن کاملNear-wall velocity measurements by Particle-Shadow-Tracking
We report a new method to measure the velocity of a fluid in the vicinity of a wall. The method, that we call Particle-Shadow Tracking (PST), simply consists in seeding the fluid with a small number of fine tracer particles of density close to that of the fluid. The position of each particle and of its shadow on the wall are then tracked simultaneously, allowing one to accurately determine the ...
متن کاملThe Wall-PIV Measurement Technique for Near Wall Flow Fields in Biofluid Mechanics
This chapter describes the development of a new time resolved 3D PIV technique for near wall flow field measurements. This measurement technique, called wall-PIV, is based on Beer-Lambert’s law. It substitutes the classical PIV laser sheet by a diffuse, monochromatic full-field illumination that is limited to the near wall region by an absorbing molecular dye in the fluid. Aimed range of applic...
متن کاملAn Accurate Velocity Profile Measurement System for Microfluidics : a Direct Measurement of the Slip Length
We describe an accurate method to measure velocity profiles inside microchannels, using particle image velocimetry combined with a nano-positioning system. The experimental setup is used to measure the slip length for water flowing along an hydrophilic surface, pyrex glass, and an hydrophobic one, a monolayer of octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) over an atomically flat silicon substrate. In the py...
متن کاملVelocity measurement of near-wall flow over inclined and curved boundaries by extended interfacial particle image velocimetry
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements near a curved boundary usually require efforts to deal with low tracer density, high shear gradient andwall reflection. To resolve these difficulties, we presented a near-wall measurement technique named interfacial PIV (IPIV) that could return a tangential velocity component and a tangential component of wall gradient [Nguyen TD, Wells J, Nguyen C....
