Abstract
The current study investigates the flow field near a surface with a micro-PIV system using a square tube to enhance optical access. Measurements of velocity fields and eddy structures near the wall of tubes are important to the design of in-tube surface geometries. In experimental fluid mechanics, particle image velocimetry (PIV) is now a common way to measure velocity. However, PIV measurements near walls require efforts to deal with low particle density, high shear gradient and wall reflection. The current paper discusses a PIV measurement technique utilized to observe flow dynamics in near-wall regions. PIV uncertainty analysis is discussed in this study. The experimental results are compared with previous results for validation.
