Post-processing of PIV data

  • Chapter
Particle Image Velocimetry

Part of the book series: Experimental Fluid Mechanics ((FLUID))

Abstract

The recording and evaluation of PIV images has been described in the previous two chapters. Investigations employing the PIV technique usually result in a great number of images which must be further processed. If looking for statistical quantities the recorded data can easily amount to some gigabytes, which is now possible with today’s computer hardware. Even more data per investigation are to be expected in future. Thus, it is quite obvious that a fast, reliable and fully automatic further processing of the PIV data is essential.
