Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid particle accelerations in fully developed turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, acceleration measurements using a detector adapted from high-energy physics to track particles in a laboratory water flow at Reynolds numbers up to 63,000 were reported, indicating that the acceleration is an extremely intermittent variable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of particle accelerations in fully developed turbulence
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used silicon strip detectors (originally developed for the CLEO III high-energy particle physics experiment) to measure fluid particle trajectories in turbulence with temporal resolution of up to 70000 frames per second.
Journal ArticleDOI
A silicon strip detector system for high resolution particle tracking in turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, a high speed imaging system that is used to track tracer particles in highly turbulent flows is described, which uses silicon strip detectors designed for high energy physics experiments and is capable of reading two detectors at a frame rate of 70 kHz.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid Particle Accelerations in Fully Developed Turbulence
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported acceleration measurements using a detector adapted from high-energy physics to track particles in a laboratory water flow at Reynolds numbers up to 63,000 and found that universal K41 scaling of the acceleration variance is attained at high Reynolds numbers.
