A study on is distinctively different from those at larger included angles. Vortex-core trajectories are compared to those for inclined-wall collisions, and secondary vortex-ring cores are found to initiate earlier for the V-walls, postulated to be a result of the opposing circumferential flows caused by the simultaneous collisions of both primary vortex-ring cores with the V-wall surfaces. These circumferential flows produce a bi-helical flow mode (Lim, Exp. Fluids, vol. 7, issue 7, 1989, pp. 453–463) that sees higher vortex compression levels along the orthogonal plane, which limit vortex stretching along the wall surfaces and produce secondary vortex rings earlier. Lastly, vortex structures and behaviour of the present collisions are compared to those associated with flat/inclined walls and round-cylinder-based collisions for a more systematic understanding of their differences.

This Letter proposes light-field multi-spectral radiation thermometry based on an unfocused light-field camera, which can simultaneously record directions and intensities of incident rays. In this method, the direction information of rays is substituted by radiation spectrums via placing an array of filters in front of camera main lens, such that the image sensor can simultaneously acquire spectrums and intensities of rays. By decoupling a raw multi-spectral light-field (MSLF) image and utilizing traditional multi-wavelength pyrometer algorithms, the scalar field of surface temperature distribution can be achieved. To verify the method, measurement errors of different temperature levels on several typical areas of MSLF images are analyzed. In addition, the validation experiment demonstrates that accurate surface temperature measurement can be achieved with a single lens, single monochromatic image sensor, and just one snapshot in the proposed method.
