This study focuses on assessing smartphone camera characteristics for developing an economic smartphone-based Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. In the investigation, flow around a cylinder was visualized using two commercially-available smartphones (OnePlus 5T and iPhone X) cameras and low-intensity laser diodes. Hydrogen bubbles generated from electrolysis (termed Bubble Image Velocimetry) of aluminum electrodes were used as seeding medium. OpenPIV, an open-source toolbox, was used for processing captured images and obtaining the flow fields. A parametric analysis of the two smartphones was conducted across varying camera characteristics such as ISO, exposure compensation and frame rate. The results obtained through experimentation were compared with the results of a validated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study with the same flow conditions and were found to be in good agreement, with deviation ranging from 1% to 3.5% for iPhone X and 1% to 7% for OnePlus 5T. It was observed that a higher frame rate results in greater accuracy of the measurement. Further, an exposure compensation of -1 EV and an ISO of 400 was found to produce results with the least error as compared to CFD values. |
