A high-performance ultra-high-speed camera for complex flows

申请的资金使我们能够获得一个高性能的超高速相机系统，以支持我们对复杂流动的影响力，生产力和创新研究。这台相机大大加快了我们对复杂流动的研究计划，这些流动出现在（i）离心旋转的油井生产，（ii）加拿大油气威尔斯井的堵塞和废弃，（iii）铝生产过程和（iv）海上浮动平台应用中。待研究的复杂流动现象具有如此程度的复杂性，以至于使用先进的实验技术，如超高速成像，成为绝对必要的。通过进行创新实验，相机使我们能够验证/改进我们在上述领域开发的先进模型和模拟，这些模型和模拟解决了加拿大相当大的社会经济和环境问题。我们的研究计划，由相机启用，加上我们的特殊教育环境将培养大量高素质的人才，为他们未来的研究和工业生涯做好准备。

The requested funding enables us to acquire a high-performance ultra-high-speed camera system to support our impactful, productive and innovative research on complex flows. This camera significantly accelerates our research program on complex flows that appear in (i) nanofiber production by centrifugal spinning, (ii) plug & abandonment of Canada's oil&gas wells, (iii) aluminum production processes and (iv) marine floating platform applications. The complex flow phenomena to be studied have such a degree of complexity that using advanced experimental techniques, such as ultra-high-speed imaging, becomes absolutely necessary. Via conducting innovative experiments, the camera allows us to validate/improve our advanced models and simulations developed in the aforementioned areas, which address considerable socioeconomic and environmental issues in Canada. Our research program, enabled by the camera, together with our exceptional educational environment will train a large number of highly qualified personnel, preparing them for their future research and industrial careers.
