Cavopulmonary Connection

Particle image velocimetry (PIV) and phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) have not been compared in complex biofluid environments. Such analysis is particularly useful to investigate flow structures in the correction of single ventricle congenital heart defects, where fluid dynamic efficiency is essential. A stereolithographic replica of an extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) is studied using PIV and PC-MRI in a steady flow loop. Volumetric two-component PIV is compared to volumetric three-component PC-MRI at various flow conditions. Similar flow structures are observed in both PIV and PC-MRI, where smooth flow dominates the extracardiac TCPC, and superior vena cava flow is preferential to the right pulmonary artery, while inferior vena cava flow is preferential to the left pulmonary artery. Where three-component velocity is available in PC-MRI studies, some helical flow in the extracardiac TCPC is observed. Vessel cross sections provide an effective means of validation for both experiments, and velocity magnitudes are of the same order. The results highlight similarities to validate flow in a complex patient-specific extracardiac TCPC. Additional information obtained by velocity in three components further describes the complexity of the flow in anatomic structures.

This study investigates the mean flow structure of two shock-wave boundary-layer interactions generated by moderately swept compression ramps in a Mach 2 flow. The ramps have a compression angle of either $19^{\circ }$ or $22.5^{\circ }$ and a sweep angle of $30^{\circ }$. The primary diagnostic methods used for this study are surface-streakline flow visualization and particle image velocimetry. The shock-wave boundary-layer interactions are shown to be quasi-conical, with the intermittent region, separation line and reattachment line all scaling in a self-similar manner outside of the inception region. This is one of the first studies to investigate the flow field of a swept ramp using particle image velocimetry, allowing more sensitive measurements of the velocity flow field than previously possible. It is observed that the streamwise velocity component outside of the separated flow reaches the quasi-conical state at the same time as the bulk surface flow features. However, the streamwise and cross-stream components within the separated flow take longer to recover to the quasi-conical state, which indicates that the inception region for these low-magnitude velocity components is actually larger than was previously assumed. Specific scaling laws reported previously in the literature are also investigated and the results of this study are shown to scale similarly to these related interactions. Certain limiting cases of the scaling laws are explored that have potential implications for the interpretation of cylindrical and quasi-conical scaling.

Abstract Understanding the velocity field at the inlet of an automotive turbocharger is critical in order to suppress the instabilities encountered by the compressor, extend its map and improve the impeller design. In the present study, two-dimensional particle image velocimetry experiments are carried out on a turbocharger compressor without any recirculating channel to investigate the planar flow structures on a cross-sectional plane right in front of the inducer at a rotational speed of 80 krpm. The objective of the study is to investigate the flow field in front of a compressor blade passage and quantify the velocity distributions along the blade span for different mass flow rates ranging from choke (77 g/s) to deep surge (13.6 g/s). It is observed that the flow field does not change substantially from choke to about 55 g/s, where flow reversal is known to start at this speed from earlier measurements. While the tangential velocity is less than 8 m/s, the radial velocity increases along the span to 17–20 m/s near the tip at high flow rates (55–77 g/s). As the mass flow rate is reduced below 55 g/s, the radial component starts decreasing and the tangential velocity increases rapidly. From about 5 m/s at 55 g/s, the tangential velocity at the blade tip exceeds 50 m/s at 50 g/s and reaches a maximum of about 135 m/s near surge. These time-averaged distributions are similar for different angular locations in front of the blade passage and do not exhibit any substantial azimuthal variation.
