Abstract
Recent experiments have shown that it is possible to implement Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) in liquid helium. However, to interpret the PIV data in the superfluid phase, it is necessary to understand how the particles are affected by the two components, the viscous normal fluid and the inviscid superfluid, as well as by the quantized vortex lines that may exist in the superfluid component. The chapter is supplemented by exercises aiming to assist the reader in better understanding this rapidly developing area of research.
I am grateful to CISM for organizing the Advanced School “Vortices and Turbulence at Very Low Temperature”, and to Professor A. Soldati (University of Udine) for encouraging this School. On behalf of C. F, Barenghi (Newcastle University), D. Kivotides (University of California Santa Barbara), and myself, who contributed to the original research described in this Chapter, I wish to thank EPSRC for support provided by Grants GR/T08876/01 and EP/D061601. I am also grateful to Dr. D. C. Swailes, who was the first reader of the manuscript, for useful comments and suggestions.
