Flow Visualization around a Flapping-Wing Micro Air Vehicle in Free Flight Using Large-Scale PIV
Flow visualizations have been performed on a free flying, flapping-wing micro air vehicle (MAV), using a large-scale particle image velocimetry (PIV) approach. The PIV method involves the use of helium-filled soap bubbles (HFSB) as tracer particles. HFSB scatter light with much higher intensity than...
