Pressure Sensitive Paint / Temperature Sensitive Paint Image Processing Software
The goal of the OMS-software-package development is to create a high-performance, comprehensive, and easy-to-use set of data-processing tools for pressure-field measurements by Pressure Sensitive Paint (PSP) Technology.
An additional aim is to create an interface between experimental and CFD approaches. This interface is based on a common hardware environment, a common method, and algorithms for model-geometry description and data presentation.
Pressure Sensitive Paint technology requires extremely sophisticated image-processing techniques. In addition to standard digital image-processing routines, the user must have a set of specific algorithms for converting input data in pressure fields that are mapped to a real three-dimensional model surface.
These pressure fields, in combination with a model-geometry description, are the basis for actual pressure-field presentation and calculation of aerodynamic loads acting on the model.
The basis of the OMS Pressure Sensitive Paint software package is a set of programs written in C++ language for the Windows-98 (2000, NT) environment on PC-compatible machines. This approach provides the possibility to re-arrange the software in accordance with the development of Pressure Sensitive Paint technology and associated image-acquisition systems.
The main components of the OMS 3.0 Software Package are:
ProImage - 2D image processing, 2D-3D data transfer
ProField - 3D image processing
