The Sareen lab has a brand-new Low-Turbulence Recirculating Free Surface Water Channel Facility. The facility is equipped with a Time-Resolved Particle-Image Velocimetry (PIV) that can be configured for Planar or Stereoscopic configurations. Other equipment include force/torque sensors, displacement sensors, air-bearing rigs, and flow visualization techniques based on dye and hydrogen bubbles. The lab also has a quiescent flow facility equipped with 2D-2C Particle-Image Velocimetry.
Along with the water tunnel facility, Sareen lab is also a part of Marine Hydrodynamics Laboratories (MHL) , the premier facility at the Central Campus of the University of Michigan, consisting of several cutting-edge facilities, including a 360 ft by 22 ft Towing Tank and 35 feet long wind-wave tank. MHL is equipped with its own machine shop, model building facility, and electronics laboratory that are operated by skilled technical professionals. Sareen lab also has access to Subsonic Wind Tunnels at the Aerospace Engineering, U-M.
