This article describes two independent developments aimed at improving the Particle Tracking Method for measurements of flow or particle velocities. First, a stereoscopic multicamera calibration method that does not require any optical model is described and evaluated. We show that this new calibration method gives better results than the most commonly-used technique, based on the Tsai camera/optics model. Additionally, the methods uses a simple interpolant to compute the transformation matrix and it is trivial to apply for any experimental fluid dynamics visualization set up. The second contribution proposes a solution to remove noise from Eulerian measurements of velocity statistics obtained from Particle Tracking velocimetry, without the need of filtering and/or windowing. The novel method presented here is based on recomputing particle displacement measurements from two consecutive frames for multiple different time-step values between frames. We show the successful application of this new technique to recover the second order velocity structure function of the flow. Increased accuracy is demonstrated by comparing the dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy measured from the second order structure function against previously validated measurements. These two techniques for improvement of experimental fluid/particle velocity measurements can be combined to provide high accuracy 3D particle and/or flow velocity statistics and derived variables needed to characterize a turbulent flow.

The radial relative velocity between particles suspended in turbulent flow plays a critical role in droplet collision and growth. We present a simple and accurate approach to RV measurement in isotropic turbulence - planar 4-frame particle tracking v
elocimetry - using routine PIV hardware. This study demonstrates the feasibility of accurately measuring RV using routine hardware and verifies, for the first time, the path-history and inertial filtering effects on particle-pair RV at large particle separations experimentally.
Three-dimensional particle tracking velocimetry (3D-PTV) technique is widely used to acquire the complicated trajectories of particles and flow fields. It is known that the accuracy of 3D-PTV depends on the mapping function to reconstruct three-dimen
sional particles locations. The mapping function becomes more complicated if the number of cameras is increased and there is a liquid-vapor interface, which crucially affect the total computation time. In this paper, using a shallow neural network model (SNN), we dramatically decrease the computation time with a high accuracy to successfully reconstruct the three-dimensional particle positions, which can be used for real-time particle detection for 3D-PTV. The developed technique is verified by numerical simulations and applied to measure a complex solutal Marangoni flow patterns inside a binary mixture droplet.
We present a comparison of different particles velocity and acceleration statistics in two paradigmatic turbulent swirling flows: the von Karman flow in a laboratory experiment, and the Taylor-Green flow in direct numerical simulations. Tracers, as w
ell as inertial particles, are considered. Results indicate that, in spite of the differences in boundary conditions and forcing mechanisms, scaling properties and statistical quantities reveal similarities between both flows, pointing to new methods to calibrate and compare models for particles dynamics in numerical simulations, as well as to characterize the dynamics of particles in simulations and experiments.
We investigate the ability of 4D Particle Tracking Velocimetry measurements at high particle density to explore intermittency and irreversibility in a turbulent swirling flow at various Reynolds numbers. For this, we devise suitable tools to remove t
he experimental noise, and compute the statistics of both Lagrangian velocity increments and wavelet coefficients of the Lagrangian power (the time derivative of the kinetic energy along a trajectory). We show that the signature of noise is strongest on short trajectories, and results in deviations from the regularity condition at small time scales. Considering only long trajectories to get rid of such effect, we obtain scaling regimes that are compatible with a reduced intermittency, meaning that long trajectories are also associated with areas of larger regularity. The scaling laws, both in time and Reynolds number, can be described by the multifractal model, with a log-normal spectrum and an intermittency parameter that is three times smaller than in the Eulerian case, where all the areas of the flow are taken into account.
To study subregions of a turbulence velocity field, a long record of velocity data of grid turbulence is divided into smaller segments. For each segment, we calculate statistics such as the mean rate of energy dissipation and the mean energy at each
scale. Their values significantly fluctuate, in lognormal distributions at least as a good approximation. Each segment is not under equilibrium between the mean rate of energy dissipation and the mean rate of energy transfer that determines the mean energy. These two rates still correlate among segments when their length exceeds the correlation length. Also between the mean rate of energy dissipation and the mean total energy, there is a correlation characterized by the Reynolds number for the whole record, implying that the large-scale flow affects each of the segments.
