Turbulence is inherently a three-dimensional and time dependent flow phenomenon (Pope, 2001). Because of the ubiquitous existence of turbulent flows in nature, accurate characterization of turbulent flows, either through experimental measurements or through direct numerical simulations, is of paramount importance for modeling turbulence (Liu and Katz, 2018). Since its inception in 1984 (Adrian, 1984), Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), among several other conventional techniques used for turbulence measurements, has been a valuable tool for providing reliable experimental data for turbulence research. Several advancements in hardware such as high-speed cameras, together with innovative algorithms and procedures, have extended the scope of PIV to a variety of applications. Westerweel et al. (2013) point out in a recent review article that one of the main advantages of the PIV measurement is its unique ability in measuring quantitatively spatial derivatives of the flow field. With the development of Tomographic PIV introduced by Elsinga et al. (2006), it is now possible to measure simultaneously the distributions of three velocity components in a three-dimensional flow field, thus enabling us to measure all the velocity derivatives of a turbulent flow. However, for a thorough characterization of a turbulent flow, in addition to the velocity gradients, the instantaneous pressure distribution in the 3D flow field also needs to be measured.

Oscillating hydrofoils were installed in a water tunnel as a surrogate model for a hydrokinetic cross-flow tidal turbine, enabling the study of the effect of flexible blades on the performance of those devices with high ecological potential. The study focuses on a single tip-speed ratio (equal to 2), the key non-dimensional parameter describing the operating point, and solidity (equal to 1.5), quantifying the robustness of the turbine shape. Both parameters are standard values for cross-flow tidal turbines. Those lead to highly dynamic characteristics in the flow field dominated by dynamic stall. The flow field is investigated at the blade level using high-speed particle image velocimetry measurements. Strong fluid–structure interactions lead to significant structural deformations and highly modified flow fields. The flexibility of the blades is shown to significantly reduce the duration of the periodic stall regime; this observation is achieved through systematic comparison of the flow field, with a quantitative evaluation of the degree of chaotic changes in the wake. In this manner, the study provides insights into the mechanisms of the passive flow control achieved through blade flexibility in cross-flow turbines.
