PIV & LIF (LaVision)

FlowMaster

Tomographic PIV

LaVision’s powerful FlowMaster laser imaging systems based on Tomographic Particle Image Velocimetry (Tomo-PIV) and Tomographic Particle Tracking Ve-locimetry (Tomo-PTV) capture instantaneous volumetric flow fields in highly turbulent flows, flames as well as sprays with outstanding spatial resolution.
