In this paper, we experimentally measure the shock wave width in a gas-fluid dispersive medium using the hot-film CTA, a speed video camera, PIV and a shadowgraph. We develop a method for determining the velocity of an optically nontransparent flow on various parts of the laboratory installation. The bubble breadown in a shock wave is confirmed experimentally.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
