CA 2696272

The invention relates to a Method for determining the flow of a fluid close to a surface of an object immersed in the fluid by analyzing at least one confocal measurement volume in the fluid, comprising the steps of: focusing light into the at least one confocal volume within the fluid; detecting and determining of at least one optical parameter of at least one particle comprised in the confocal volume; and determining the flow velocity of the fluid based on the determination of the at least one optical parameter using a correlation function, in particular an auto correlation function or a cross correlation function. Furthermore, the invention relates to an object immersed in a fluid and comprising a measuring device for carrying out the method.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour déterminer l'écoulement d'un liquide proche d'une surface d'un objet immergé dans le liquide par l'analyse d'au moins un volume de mesure confocal dans le liquide, le procédé comprenant les étapes consistant à focaliser de la lumière dans le ou les volumes confocaux à l'intérieur du liquide ; détecter et déterminer au moins un paramètre optique d'au moins une particule comprise dans le volume confocal ; et déterminer la vitesse d'écoulement du liquide sur la base de la détermination du ou des paramètres optiques à l'aide d'une fonction de corrélation, en particulier une fonction d'auto-corrélation ou une fonction de corrélation croisée. De plus, l'invention concerne un objet immergé dans un liquide et comprenant un dispositif de mesure pour mettre en uvre le procédé.
