Ultra-high speed particle image velocimetry on drop-on-demand jetting

An experimental setup to study the dynamics of droplet jetting from a commercially available print-head is described. A MicroFab print-head with an 80 μm diameter transparent nozzle was set to print droplets at a speed of 5 m/s at a frequency of 7 kHz. A Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) scheme consi...
