Method and device for determining the movements of a fluid from remote measurements of radial velocities

Abstract

A method is provided for determining the flow of a fluid in a volume of interest, including steps of remotely measuring, at a plurality of measurement points distributed along at least three axes of measurement having different spatial orientations passing through the volume of interest, the radial velocity of the fluid in the vicinity of the measurement points, and for calculating the velocity of the fluid at a plurality of calculation points distributed in a grid in the volume of interest, wherein the calculation of the velocity of the fluid includes the use of a mechanical behavior model of the fluid. A device is disclosed for implementing the method.
