To provide information on the wake characteristics of Dynamic Positioning (DP) thrusters when operating with and without a nozzle under varied operating conditions, experiments were done on a ducted propeller model in a cavitation tunnel. The propeller flow field was measured with a two-component Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) system, up to 1.5 diameters downstream. These experiments were carried out with and without the nozzle, and the results are presented here for a pitch/diameter ratio of 1.2 and an advance coefficient of 0.4. This paper shows and compares the results of the DP thruster near wake hydrodynamic characteristics obtained by the LDV system when operating with and without a nozzle.

Laser Doppler Velocimetry is an important flow diagnostic methodology used in modern day fluid flow investigations. The present paper describes the design and manufacturing aspects of a novel fibre optic LASER Doppler probe head intended for three dimensional measurements in a complex flow field. The paper particularly concentrates on the tight tolerances required of the various components associated with the probe head to achieve the desired measurement volume. Keywords: Fibre Optic, Laser Doppler, Velocimetry, three-dimensional, complex flow field

Laser-Doppler velocimetry (LDV) measurements are presented of relative mean velocity and turbulence intensity components inside the impeller passage of a centrifugal fan with twelve backward curved blades at design, under-design, and over-design flow rates. Additional LDV measurements were also performed at the volute outlet to examine the uniformity of the outlet flow for the three selected flow rates. Complementary flow visualization results in the tongue region are further presented. It is found that the number of characteristic flow regions and the average turbulence level increase with decreasing air flow rate. For the case of under-design flow rate, there are a through-flow region on the suction side, a reverse flow region on the pressure side, and a shear layer region in between. The corresponding average turbulence intensity is as high as 9.1% of blade tip velocity.
