Matching the Density of Particle and Fluid for PIV Applications

Product Code: UVPMS-BG-1.00 (Cospheric LLC) Fluorescent Microspheres Precision Density of 1.00g/cc

Density of particle vs. density of fluid in particle image velocimetry: Many flow visualization experiments are done in water but there are a variety of other liquids and even water-based solutions that will have differing densities whose velocity fields are being mapped or will be in the future. Therefore, having seed particles to match these … Read more

Neutrally Buoyant Particles – What Are They, What Are They Used For, How to Use Them?

Suspension of microspheres in water enables the visualization and characterization of fluid flow and testing the capability of devices to withstand particulate matter in the fluid stream, ensuring that microspheres do not settle and do not float on the surface. Most of these polymer microspheres are at least moderately opaque and clearly visible in water, clear or translucent liquids.
