Experiments on High-Speed Multi-Phase Flow
Internship Description
Workshop Description
The project will use high-speed video cameras to study the motions of drops and bubbles inside high-speed water-flow through a small channel. Two high-speed cameras will be used to follow the trajectories of the droplets and small bubbles and record their breakup. The aim of the work is to see how the smallest droplets or bubbles are generated by the turbulent flow-field. This study is relevant for applications in the petrochemical industry.
Deliverables/Expectations
Deliverables
Perform experiments in the High-Speed Fluids Imaging Laboratory under the supervision of Sigurdur Thoroddsen. Write a final report describing all the experiments performed and reducing the data. Write a description of experimental techniques for others to continue the work.
