Development of schlieren-image based flow diagnostics and analysis for supersonic jet flows by Lim, Desmond Haoxiang

“…When compared against PIV results, the much higher spatial and temporal resolution of SIVOF resulted in sharper and clearer vortical structures that can be tracked across several time-resolved frames. An embedded shear layer resulting from subsonic flow downstream of a 0.9 mm diameter Mach disk was also observed, which is testament to the high-fidelity flow field offered by SIVOF. …”
