Abstract

A benchmark evaluation of event-based imaging velocimetry (EBIV) on its acquisition capability and measurement uncertainty is performed. Toward this end, a digital micro-mirror device interfaced with a pulsed laser light source is employed to generate illuminated particle images under various predefined particle diameters and concentrations, serving as the ground-truth base. For ease of comparison, a frame-based camera is used to provide the reference particle images. The measurement results indicate that the maximum frame-recovered acquisition frequency decreases as either particle image diameter or concentration increases, converging to a minimum level of 2400 Hz for the EVK4 event-based camera. Despite this lower limit of frequency, adding large-diameter and high-concentration particles may induce event overflow and then lead to incorrect velocity measurements. This deficiency can be avoided by maintaining a margin of around 5% between the maximum acquisition frequency and its lower limit, which corresponds to frequencies over 2500 Hz in this study. Furthermore, for an acquisition frequency over 2500 Hz, a diameter of 2.20 px exhibits the lowest mean velocity uncertainty, whereas, for an acquisition frequency below 2500 Hz, diameters of 2.20 and 3.06 px can both achieve the lowest uncertainty level. A linear model is also proposed to predict the maximum acquisition frequency in practical applications. This work establishes the relationship among acquisition frequency, measurement uncertainty, particle size and concentration for the EBIV system. Finally, a two-dimensional EBIV experiment on a water jet is successfully conducted at 4 kHz.

基于数字微镜装置的事件成像测速基准评价
对基于事件的成像测速技术(EBIV)的采集能力和测量不确定度进行了基准评估。为此,采用数字微镜装置与脉冲激光光源接口,生成各种预定粒径和浓度的照明粒子图像,作为地面真相基础。为了便于比较,我们使用了基于帧的相机来提供参考粒子图像。测量结果表明,最大帧恢复采集频率随着粒子图像直径和浓度的增加而降低,并收敛到最小水平2400 Hz。尽管存在频率下限,但加入大直径、高浓度的粒子可能会导致事件溢出,从而导致速度测量不正确。这一缺陷可以通过在最大采集频率与其下限之间保持约5%的余量来避免,该下限对应于本研究中超过2500 Hz的频率。此外,对于2500 Hz以上的采集频率,直径2.20 px表现出最低的平均速度不确定性,而对于2500 Hz以下的采集频率,直径2.20和3.06 px都可以达到最低的不确定性水平。在实际应用中,提出了一种预测最大采集频率的线性模型。本文建立了EBIV系统采集频率、测量不确定度、粒径和浓度之间的关系。最后,成功地在4 kHz的水射流上进行了二维EBIV实验。
