Description

The School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering (ABC) have a requirement for a 3D time-resolving particle tracking velocimetry system to obtain 360-degree volumetric flow measurements around complex obstacles. The system requires capability to capture fluid interactions with dynamic and deformable structures (e.g. wind turbines, swimming humans/animals and vegetation), integrating structural kinematics and flow calculation. It needs to be an LED-based system to allow flexible use in open laboratories (i.e. no lasers), with the ability to apply to experiments in both air and water, with approximate range of cubic measurement volume of length = 0.05 m – 0.3 m To view this notice, please click here: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/delta/viewNotice.html?noticeId=1007533847
