COMPUTER AIDED FLOW VISUALIZATION TECHNIQUES: improve image quality, to highlight certain aspects of image (eg. edges), and to provide methods that can illustrate flow properties and structures. Its scopes include: 1. Image synthesis which is the creation of visual image from either field measurement ( i.e. quantitative data ) or computation ( i.e. analytical simulations) 2. Image enhancement through the modification of certain aspects of the original image. 3. Image reconstruction of a three-dimensional image from a two dimensional image taken from the conventional flow visualization. Second-generation flow visualization can be classified into two broad categories: Video imaging and Computer graphics.
