Description
Areas of application
- Flow analysis: Precise measurement of velocities and turbulent flow parameters.
- High-resolution measurements: Detection of the smallest vortex structures in complex flow fields.
- Versatile use: Application in flow fields of various turbomachines, e.g. diffusers and turbines.
Functionality and advantages
- Measuring principle: Temperature dependence of the ohmic resistance of an electrically heated sensor around which a fluid flows provides data on the flow velocity.
- Constant temperature circuit: A Wheatstone bridge circuit is used to keep the wire temperature constant, ensuring precise and fast measurements.
- 3D measurements: Multi-wire probes allow the flow velocity to be recorded in all three spatial directions.
- Mobility: The TFD CTA system is mobile and can be used on various test benches.
Technical details
- Resolution: High temporal resolution for detailed detection of turbulent flows.
- Measuring volume: Small volume allows the smallest flow structures to be analyzed.
- Main applications: Regular use on the axial diffuser test bench and for determining the degree of turbulence on the air turbine test bench.
