Fluid Mechanics
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is an optical method used to visualize and measure fluid flow by tracking the movement of seeded particles within the fluid. This technique provides detailed velocity fields by capturing images of the particles illuminated by a laser light source, allowing researchers to analyze complex flow patterns and phenomena such as flow separation and wakes.
congrats on reading the definition of Particle Image Velocimetry. now let's actually learn it.
