title: Multiphase bubbly flow visualization using particle image velocimetry.
abstract: This article describes advances made in using particle image velocimetry (PIV) techniques in the study of multiphase bubbly flow. One of the fundamental issues in bubbly flow is the prediction of the velocity field. A methodology that allows for velocity field measurements of both components of a two-phase bubbly flow is presented. The bubble shape is also constructed via a shadow imaging technique combined with PIV.
