Correction of PIV data for reconstruction of the gas velocity in a supersonic underexpanded jet

摘要

A method of correction of particle image velocimetry (PIV) data for reconstruction of the gas velocity based on the particle velocity in supersonic underexpanded jets is considered. The method is based on estimating the velocity lag of tracer particles on the basis of their velocity relaxation parameter as a correction to PIV data in the Newton approximation of interphase interaction. It is shown that the velocity relaxation parameter of tracer particles in flows with velocity jumps can be determined from the initial PIV data. Correction with the found parameter of velocity relaxation of the phases provides good accuracy.
