Product Details

The uniquely designed, patented V3V camera mounting frames, V3V-9000-TS and V3V-9000-CS, offer different volume sizes and spatial resolutions required for users' measurements. The frame allows the camera to be secured quickly such that the system is ready to take measurements in less than 30 minutes. Unlike other types of volumetric PIV systems, TSI's V3V 9000 series does not require the time intensive process to adjust the camera location and angle to obtain the correct focusing.

Choice of cameras determines the spatial resolution and capture rate required to achieve the best possible results; and the three cameras are detachable from the V3V camera mounting frame so users can further their measurement capabilities. Moreover, the cameras are easily configured for planar-PIV, stereo-PIV or PLIF measurements.

The appropriate selection of the camera frame and camera type depends on what you need to measure. Various cameras with high pixel resolution and frame rate are available. There are two types of frames: V3V-9000-CS and V3V-9000-TS. The V3V-9000-CS frame is intended for large volume size to provide the coherent structure of the flow, while the V3V-9000-TS gives the more detailed turbulent flow structure in a smaller volume. Refer to the Required Components section below, to get the specifications of the various types of cameras and the two frames.

The V3V-9000 system uses the Insight V3V-DPIR image capture and data analysis software package to extract the highest possible vector field information for the flow measurement.
