Spatial filter velocimetry (SFV) based on spatial filtering of time-series particle images proposed by Hosokawa and Tomiyama is applied to a planar bubble plume to examine its applicability to simultaneous measurement of bubble and liquid velocities. The edge detection process is added in the SFV processing to reduce the size of image pattern and to obtain accurate bubble velocity. Bubble regions in the recorded images of the planer bubble plume are detected by using a labeling process, and the particle and bubble images are generated by masking the bubble region and by inversing the bubble region, respectively. Then, SFV processing is applied to particle and bubble images to obtain liquid and bubble velocities, respectively. The measured results clearly demonstrate the potential of SFV for simultaneous measurements of liquid and gas velocities in two-phase flows.
