Abstract:
This paper reports the establishment of a model of turbulent flow separation area for experiment on the downstream of tubal stenosis, and adjust it to cooperate with the velocity and turbulent shear stress (TSS) detection by means of the particle image velocimetry (PIV), and with the pressure detection of pressure sensor in vitro. The velocity, TSS and wall pressure characteristics of the downstream of tubal stenosis were quantitatively detected and analyzed via the PIV and pressure sensor. And the hydrodynamic characteristics of the velocity, TSS and wall pressure in the flow separation area were primarily understood. The model can cooperate smoothly with the PIV and pressure sensor to detect the velocity, TSS and wall pressure; there exist low velocity, low TSS and low pressure in the flow separation area downstream of tubal stenosis.
