## Description

The University has recently been awarded an EPSRC equipment grant and wants to purchase a Stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry \(PIV\) System\. The objectives of the equipment are summarized as follows: • To obtain stereo particle image velocimetry \(SPIV\) measurements in \(i\) a wind tunnel at speeds up to 35 m/s, and \(ii\) in water flumes at speeds up 1 m/s\. The scope of this contract is for the supply of the equipment as detailed in the ITT to the University, with after-sales support and 36 months warranty and maintenance
