Project Information

Project ID:
FHWA-PROJ-13-0039
Project Abstract:

This project will collect data from the field to characterize the spray clouds emanating from vehicles as they drive beneath a bridge structure. The data may be in the form of cloud density measurements, particle velocities, or both.

Goals:

Collect the necessary data of vehicular spray clouds that can be used to verify computational fluid dynamics models of the same scenario.
