Simultaneous PSP and DIC measurements for fluid-structure interactions in a shock tube

2018 Fluid Dynamics Conference

Lynch, Kyle P.; Jones, Elizabeth M.; Wagner, Justin W.

Simultaneous pressure sensitive paint (PSP) and stereo digital image correlation (DIC) measurements on a jointed beam structure are presented. Tests are conducted in a shock tube, providing an impulsive starting condition followed by approximately uniform high-speed flow conditions for 5.0 msec. The unsteady pressure loading generated by shock waves and vortex shedding results in the excitation of various structural modes in the beam. The combined data characterizes the structural loading input (pressure) and the resulting structural behavior output (deformation). Time-series filtering is used to remove external bias errors such as shock tube motion, and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is used to extract mode shapes from the deformation data. This demonstrates the utility of using fast-response PSP together with stereo digital image correlation (DIC), which provides a valuable capability for validating structural dynamics simulations.
