Flow Visualization with CorVue
Boundary Interaction in Stratified Crossflow
Buoyant Jet Trapped in Stratified Ambient.
Ambient density stratification can cause boundary interaction as shown here by a buoyant jet trapping and density current formation in density stratified crossflow.
CorVue Visualization of S1 flow class.
A CorVue visualization of flow class S1 trapping by a density-stratified crossflow followed by density current far-field mixing. Enhanced image has ambient boundaries, and flow module regions with RMZ and TDZ locations highlighted.
Boundary Interaction in Stratified Ambients with Upstream Density Currents
Near-field trapping due to ambinet stratification.
This experiment shows ambient density stratification causes near-field flow trapping and subsequent density current formation for a single port discharge in a stagnant ambient.
CorVue Visualization of S5 flow class.
CorVue S5 flow classification visualization shows a near-field flow trapped by stratified crossflow, buoyant density current upstream spreading, and subsequent far-field mixing (enhanced image).
Upstream Density Currents
