To diagnose circulatory diseases in the viewpoint of hemodynamics, we need to get quantitative hemodynamic information of blood flows related with the vascular diseases with high spatial resolution of tens micrometer and high temporal resolution in the order of millisecond. For investigating in-vivo hemodynamic phenomena, a new diagnosing technique combining medical radiography and PIV method was newly proposed and developed. This angiographic PIV technique consists of a medical X-ray tube, an X-ray CCD camera, a shutter module for double pulses of X-ray, and a synchronizer. The feasibility of the angiographic PIV technique was tested and quantitative flow velocity field distribution of a flow inside an opaque conduit was acquired by the developed system. It can be used for measuring flow phenomena of nontransparent fluids inside opaque conduits.

Simultaneous CH and OH planar laser induced fluorescence(PLIF) and stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements have been developed to investigate the local flame structure of turbulent premixed flames. The developed simultaneous two radical concentrations and three component velocity measurements on a two-dimensional plane was applied for relatively high Reynolds number turbulent premixed flames in a swirl stabilized combustor. All measurements were conducted for methane-air premixed flames in the corrugated flamelets regime. Strong three-dimensional fluctuation implies that misunderstanding of the flame/turbulent interactions would be caused by the analysis of two-component velocity distribution in a cross section. Furthermore, comparisons of CH-OH PLIF and three-component velocity field show that the burned gases not always have high-speed velocity in relatively high Reynolds number turbulent premixed flame. The Reynolds number dependence of the flame front was clearly captured by the simultaneous CH-OH PLIF and stereoscopic PIV measurements.

A 5-valve(intake 3-valve) engine has been developed to increase engine performance. These vehicles have a high power caused by the decrease of inertia mass of an intake valve and the increase of intake effective area. In this study, velocity profiles at near intake valves were inspected by using a two-color PIV and laser sheet method with tumble control valve(TCV). In addition, steady flow tests were performed to quantify tumble ratio on flow-fields generated with a TCV. These experimental results show that the tendency of the tunble ratio in intake 3-valve engine is different from the one in intake 2-valve engine. From this results, the intake flow characteristics around intake valves were made clear.

Heat generated from the electronic parts in PDP is undesirable physical properties. To attain optimal arrangement of the electronic parts in PDP, thermal flows in PDP should be analyzed. PIV measurement has been made to quantify the characteristics of the inner flows and outer flows of an actual PDP. The quantity of heat flux from PDP has been estimated using the PIV results. Measurement system consists of Ar-ion laser, CCD camera and an image grabber installed on a host computer.

The x-ray PIV method was improved for measuring quantitative velocity fields of real blood flows using a coherent synchrotron x-ray source. Without using any contrast media or seeding particles, this method can visualize flow pattern of blood by enhancing the phase-contrast and interference characteristics of blood cells based on a synchrotron x-ray imaging mechanism. The enhanced x-ray images were achieved by optimizing the sample-to-scintillator distance, the sample thickness, and hematocrit. The quantitative velocity fields of blood flows inside opaque tubes were obtained by applying a 2-frame PIV algorithm to the x-ray images of the blood flows. The measured velocity field data show typical features of blood flows such as the yield stress effect. The non-Newtonian flow characteristics of blood flows were analyzed using the x-ray PIV method and the experimental results were compared with hemodynamic models.

The unsteady flow in three-dimensional cubic cavity with narrow channel at upper region is investigated experimentally for three kinds of Reynolds number, 1*10/sup 4/, 3*10/sup 4/ and 5*10/sup 4/ based on the cavity width and cavity inlet mean flow velocity. Instant velocity vectors are obtained simultaneously at whole field by PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry). Wall pressure distributions are estimated using Poisson equation from the velocity data. Results of PIV reveal that severe unsteady flow fluctuation within the cavity are remarkable at all Reynolds numbers and sheared mixing layer phenomena are also found at the region where inlet driving flow is collided with the clock-wise rotating main primary vortex. Instant velocity profiles reveal that deformed forced vortex formation is observed throughout the entire region and spanwise kinetic energy migration is conspicuous.

In this paper, we propose a new PIV methodology for obtaining a velocity field from a sequence of multiple image data based on a least-square principle (also known as MQD; minimum quadratic difference) for the grey level difference between two neighboring frames of image data. We investigated both the accuracy of the result and the time consumption in the computation. It turns out that the proposed method is not only accurate but fast compared with the conventional correlation PIV techniques. Our method is applied to the spin-up flows and the results show that the method can be a good substitution for the conventional algorithms employed in the existing commercial codes.
