New LDV system!

We have just started commissioning our new three component Laser Dopper Velocimetry (LDV) system from Dantec. Providing all three velocity components at a single point in the flow, we will be using this system to explore in-rotor turbine hydrodynamics and the influences of incoming turbulence on performance.
