Time-resolved tomographic particle image velocimetry facility

从该基础设施提供的测量中获得的实验信息将导致在理解湍流和固体结构动力学方面的重大进展，这将影响广泛的工程和地球物理领域。一些具体的例子包括制定有效的湍流控制战略，以减少表面摩擦阻力和改善燃烧过程，不仅提高了车辆的燃油效率，而且减少了二氧化碳和污染物的排放。在了解污染物在大气中的扩散、风力涡轮机设计和开发更轻、更强、疲劳寿命更长的智能材料方面也可以取得重大进展。

The experimental information gained from measurements provided by this infrastructure will lead to significant advances in understanding turbulent flows and the dynamics of solid structures, which will impact a broad range of engineering and geophysical fields. Some specific examples include the development of efficient turbulence control strategies for the reduction of skin-friction drag and improved combustion processes, resulting in not only better fuel efficiency for vehicles but also reduced CO2 and pollutant emissions. Significant advances can also be made in understanding the dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere, wind turbine design and the development of lighter and stronger intelligent materials with improved fatigue life.
