Algorithms for fully automated three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry
TL;DR: The 3-D Particle Tracking Velocimetry technique has been optimized to allow fully automatic processing of long sequences of image pairs in a computationally efficient manner, hereby providing a viable, practical tool for the study of complex flows.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Combustion Chamber Effects on Burn Rates in a High Swirl Spark Ignition Engine
TL;DR: In this article, three different combustion chambers were investigated (75 % and 60 % squish bowl-in-piston chambers and a disk chamber) using a cylinder head with a swirl producing intake port and near central spark location.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characterization of Intake-Generated Flow Fields in I.C. Engines Using 3-D Particle Tracking Velocimetry (3-D PTV)
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modeling the effect of swirl on turbulence intensity and burn rate in S. I. engines and comparison with experiment
TL;DR: In this article, an engine simulation model was used to study the effect of in-cylinder swirl level on turbulence intensity and burn rate while holding the inducted kinetic energy constant.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Photogrammetric calibration for improved three-dimensional particle-tracking velocimetry (3D PTV)
TL;DR: The use of this technique significantly reduces the computational time required for 3D PTV and increases the accuracy of the measured velocity fields.
