SUMMARY:Infrared thermography for temperature and velocity measurements in
  gas flows - Mauro Gallo\, ETH Zurich
DTSTART:20101014T103000Z
DTEND:20101014T113000Z
UID:TALK26482@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Catherine Pearson
DESCRIPTION:The knowledge of the temperature and velocity distributions in
  a flow field can be of fundamental importance to understand the underlyin
 g physical processes. The standard techniques employed for such investigat
 ions are affected by different drawbacks like high intrusiveness\, high te
 st times\, high equipment costs and complexity of operation. In order to o
 vercome these drawbacks a new experimental technique is being developed. T
 his provides a two-dimensional and simultaneous measurement of temperature
  and velocity using a thermal sensor (high porosity grid) and a temperatur
 e transducer (Infrared camera). \nThe presentation will describe the physi
 cal and technical aspects of the technique and the scenarios in which it c
 ould be successfully employed like\, for example\, gas flows in tunnels an
 d buildings generated by fires and/or ventilation systems.\n
