Description
Summary:This review paper addresses the integration of advanced visualization techniques into the analysis of volumetric vector fields obtained by experimental measurement techniques such as holographic PIV, tomographic PIV, 3D PTV or defocusing PIV. The paper follows the idea of the pipeline process for flow visualization focusing on experimental data generation and advanced visualization techniques. The paper tries to help the experimentalist navigating the landscape of recently developed volumetric measurement techniques and advanced visualization techniques. The processing steps and related difficulties are illustrated with the transitional backward facing step flow experiment at Re h  = 4,440. The paper shows the usage of flow visualization for quantitative volumetric PIV data analysis.
