Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of experimental testing devices, specifically relating to a three-dimensional background-guided schlieren multi-camera experimental stage for jet measurement. Background Technology

[0002] Background-guided schlieren imaging, as an experimental method for quantitatively measuring flow fields, has gradually gained attention from researchers due to its advantages such as non-contact operation, no particle intrusion, and ease of operation. The experimental setup for background-guided schlieren imaging includes a background plate, the flow field to be measured, a digital camera, and a computer. Its basic principle is similar to traditional schlieren imaging, utilizing the property that light is deflected when passing through a flow field with density perturbations to obtain flow field information. This also leads to a common drawback: the measured flow field information is the result of integration along the light path, which cannot reveal the fine structure inside complex flow fields. To overcome this drawback, researchers use a combination of multiple cameras and background plates to observe flow field information from multiple perspectives, and combine this with tomographic algorithms to quantitatively reconstruct the three-dimensional results of the flow field.

[0003] Background-guided schlieren experimental systems require careful consideration of two parameters: the distance l from the background plate to the flow field under test. b The distance l from the camera to the flow field being measured c Variations in these two parameters can have opposing effects on the sensitivity and spatial resolution of the measurement system, requiring a trade-off between them. Related studies do not provide universally applicable values; often, multiple trials are needed to determine l based on the specific flow field being measured. b and l c The size of l. For a two-dimensional background-guided schlieren experiment, changing l b and l c It is easy to implement, but for 3D background guided schlieren experiments, changing l b and l c The overall structure of the experimental setup needs to be considered. Currently, 3D background-guided schlieren multi-camera experimental setups used for jet measurement are typically not easily adjustable, and changes to the setup are difficult. b and l c The previous setup required rebuilding the test bench, increasing experimental costs and complicating operation. The background-guided schlieren imaging experimental setup needs strong stability to minimize the impact of test bench vibration on background point displacement. Simultaneously, due to the limitations imposed by the gas supply pipeline, the nozzle experimental setup is typically immobile. To facilitate other flow field visualization and measurement experiments on the jet, the 3D background-guided schlieren multi-camera experimental bench must be mobile. Based on these requirements, it is necessary to design a 3D background-guided schlieren multi-camera experimental bench for jet measurement. Summary of the Invention
