Proposal Number: CTS 9977605Principal Investigator: R. SmithThis Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) award supports the acquisition of a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and a spectrometer for use in MOCVD reactors. The PIV will be used to in the design of flow in microchannels and reaction chambers. The micron resolution measurements of the PIV system will be combined with the nano-resolution of an Atomic Force Microscope to study microscale transport associated with complicated surfaces. The PIV will also the measurement of velocity fields immediately above the surface with simultaneous AFM measurements will allow the examination of the evolution of the surface. The instruments will be used of study mixing and transport processes associated with biological fluid mechanics, such as tissue engineering and endothelial tissue evolution.Spatial mixing issues in MOCVD reactors will also be investigated. The use of the spectrometer and CCD arrays will give estimates of multiple gas concentrations at multiple points within the reactor. Fiber optic lines will be used to pipe the light from various points within the reaction chamber. This will give the capability of developing and experimentally verifying models of gas flow and mixing dynamics. These models will be used to design high performance feedback controllers.hot wire anemometry and data acquisition system to support the Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Research in Turbulence project at Valparaiso University. The project will investigate atmospheric and engineering scale turbulent transport. The project's main focus is on the education and training of students in both Colleges of Engineering and of Arts and Sciences in the specific areas of atmospheric turbulence, environmental pollution in turbulent air and water flows, and generalized modeling of the turbulent transport of mass and thermal energy. In addition, it will be used in developing an educational seminar for faculty from nearby institutions.

建议书编号：CTS 9977605首席研究员：R·史密斯这项主要研究仪器(MRI)奖支持购买用于MOCVD反应堆的粒子图像测速仪(PIV)和光谱仪。PIV将用于微通道和反应室的流动设计。PIV系统的微米分辨率测量将与原子力显微镜的纳米分辨率相结合，以研究与复杂表面相关的微尺度传输。PIV还将测量紧邻表面上方的速度场，并同时进行AFM测量，从而能够检查表面的演变。这些仪器将用于研究与生物流体力学相关的混合和传输过程，如组织工程和内皮组织进化。还将研究MOCVD反应器中的空间混合问题。分光计和电荷耦合器件阵列的使用将给出反应堆内多个点的多种气体浓度的估计。光纤线路将被用来从反应室内的各个点输送光。这将使开发和实验验证气体流动和混合动力学模型的能力。这些模型将用于设计高性能的反馈控制器、热线风速测量和数据采集系统，以支持瓦尔帕莱索大学的多学科本科生湍流研究项目。该项目将调查大气和工程尺度的湍流输送。该项目的主要重点是在大气湍流、湍流空气和水流中的环境污染以及质量和热能湍流传输的通用模型方面对工程学院和文理学院的学生进行教育和培训。此外，它还将用于为附近机构的教师开发一个教育研讨会。
