What is it about?

The demonstration of the motion-capturing PSP system under the unstable illumination light source was conducted in a supersonic wind tunnel. In this report, describing how the new measurement technique applied and works. Also, compared the result the new method and conventional PSP measurement.

Why is it important?

The most important thing in this report is the motion-capturing PSP system allows a PSP measurement to be applied in testing with an unstable illumination light source.

Perspectives

This report might give an option to someone who wants to employ PSP measurements on wind tunnel testing with an unstable illumination light source, such as plasma-related flow or testing with fluctuating laser excitation. The conventional (single) PSP method may not capture pressure distribution with accuracy when it is applied the condition as explained above, but the motion-capturing PSP method has a possibility to obtain.
