Flow Visualization CS 4390/5390 Data Visualization Shirley Moore, Instructor November 24, 2014
Announcements • Tests will be graded by next Monday, can do retake finals week if needed • Project design documents are due today. Turn in tomorrow (Tuesday) by midnight in order not to lose points (turn in hard copy or email to svmoore@utep.edu) • Final exam period is Friday, December 12, 1:00-3:45pm; Final projects are due then.
Understanding Fluid Flows • Dynamics causing the flow (forces) • Pressure, buoyancy, inertia, viscous forces, surface forces…. Etc. • Effects of these forces on the flow (Flow and fluid properties) • Velocity, acceleration, vorticity • Viscosity, temperature, scalar concentration, density …. Etc.
Why Flow Visualization • Understand flow phenomena • Verify model or theory results • Easier measurements • To get a priori knowledge of a solution
What we need to visualize • Stream lines • a line, tangent to which at any given instant is the velocity vector at that point • Streak lines • locus of particles which have passed through a prescribed point during a specified time interval • Path lines • locus of points traversed by a given fluid particle during some specified time interval • Time lines • line joining different adjacent points at any instant of time

Methods of flow measurement • Gas flows • Smoke visualization • Particle • Shadowgraphs and Schlieren • Liquid flows • Dye • Shadowgraphs and Schlieren • Particles • Bubbles • Fluorescence, phosphorescence

Computational Fluid Dynamics • Simulates fluid flow by solving differential equations using numerical methods • CFD has taken the place of wind tunnels for many evaluations of aircraft and, as computing power increases and computer models become more sophisticated, CFD will largely replace wind tunnels.
