About this item
Description: The image(s) show the flow topology for a flat plate wing rotated 180 degrees about the mid chord. The experiment was conducted in a quiescent water tank, and the shear layer feeding vortices behind each plate edge is illuminated using a milk based dye and twin laser light sheets.
Note: The images were taken with a Phantom M310 high speed camera, which has a monochrome 1280x800 pixel sensor. I therefore cannot provide any higher resolution or colour images.
