Software Assessment for Particle Image Velocimetry for Aviation Industry

Abstract

Particle image velocimetry is both quantitatively and qualitatively flow velocity measurement technique that uses various software programs. Software packages that exist in particle image velocimetry experiments can be used for various purposes. Analyzing, post-processing, image processing, modeling, and computational fluid dynamics are prominent purposes. Choosing the right software and steps mainly affects the results. In this study, software programs that are utilized in particle image velocimetry studies were investigated and explained. Software programs were listed in table, and the main findings for aviation sector were revealed. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2023.
