Digital particle image velocimetry records high resolution images and allows the identification of the position of points in different time instants. This paper explores the efficiency of the digital image-technique for remote monitoring of surface velocity and discharge measurement in hyper-concentrated flow by the way of laboratory experiment. One of the challenges in the application of the image-technique is the evaluation of the error in estimating surface velocity. The error quantification is complex because it depends on many factors characterizing either the experimental conditions or/and the processing algorithm. In the present work, attention is devoted to the estimation error due either to the acquisition time or to the size of the sub-images (interrogation areas) to be correlated. The analysis is conducted with the aid of data collected in a scale laboratory flume constructed at the Hydraulic laboratory of the Department of Civil, Environmental, Aerospace and of Materials Engineering (DICAM)—University of Palermo (Italy) and the image processing is carried out by the help of the PivLab algorithm in Matlab. The obtained results confirm that the number of frames used in processing procedure strongly affects the values of surface velocity; the estimation error decreases as the number of frames increases. The size of the interrogation area also exerts an important role in the flow velocity estimation. For the examined case, a reduction of the size of the interrogation area of one half compared to its original size has allowed us to obtain low values of the velocity estimation error. Results also demonstrate the ability of the digital image-technique to estimate the discharge at given cross-sections. The values of the discharge estimated by applying the digital image-technique downstream of the inflow sections by using the aforementioned size of the interrogation area compares well with those measured.

A sequential digital image technique was employed to detect the onset of coalescence between pairs of holes in tensile specimens. The coalescence event was induced between cylindrical holes that were positioned with various spacing and ligament orientations. Using finite-element analysis as a framework, the coalescence predictions of a classic micromechanical model were compared with the experimental coalescence results. It was found that the predicted strains at coalescence could be significantly improved by accounting for local work-hardening in the ligament region between the two holes. Digital image correlation was used to extract strain values from the digital image record, for both the far-field and the intervoid ligament.

The report describes combustion tests with Bienfait lignite from Saskatchewan and Onakawana lignite from James Bay. They were burned in a pilot-scale, pulverized-fired boiler primarily to study combustion performance and fireside fouling tendencies under slag-tap conditions. Flame stability and complete combustion were readily obtained, although satisfactory slag tapping was not achieved with either fuel. Fireside ash deposit samples, representing each fuel, were collected from various parts of the boiler and subjected to exhaustive analyses. The results indicate that, when burning Bienfait lignite, selective deposition of ash constituents takes place, resulting in a eutectic composition downstream of the furnace exit. In the case of Onakawana lignite, selective ash deposition did not occur. Deposit analyses, fusion temperatures, and enrichment ratios are given for both fuels.
