Popis: The flow development behind a swirl generator according to EN 14154 of a gravimetric cold- and hot-water standard measuring facility is shown at different positions by measurements carried out using Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (SPIV). Hereby, the effects of the swirl generator downstream are shown, and the prevailing flow condition is evaluated by means of characteristic values. SPIV is suited as a fast and accurate measurement procedure for the high-resolution determination – temporally and spatially – of 3C velocity profiles in piping.
