Testing method:

• seeding of flows using particles adapted to the tested flows (velocity, temperatures,...)
• visualisation of particles path lines using a camera and a plane surface lighted by a laser beam
• image recording and processing

Applications:

• useful for the diagnosis, the design on experimental model or the setting of air distribution and diffusion
• usable on-site and in a laboratory
• the studied flow velocities may reach a maximum of 300 m/s
• the measuring plane may reach maximum dimensions of 10 m by 10 m

Other equipment:

• The visualisation equipment may be completed by a Doppler laser anemometer enabling to perform an air velocities cartography
