Abstract

 We describe a non-intrusive PIV system developed for performing high-resolution measurements in a field of view of 2 m×3 m, as required on the LEGI-Coriolis 13 m diameter rotating platform. Particle preparation, laser illumination, photographic digitization, and cross-correlation analysis techniques are explained. Some results on the wake behind a cylinder illustrate the possibilities of this PIV system.
