High-Speed Cameras for Fluid Dynamics
Physics and Engineering applications investigating Fluid Dynamics require reliable, high-resolution, high frame-rate capture of liquid and gas flow. Chronos high-speed cameras are relied on in labs around the world to capture hydrodynamic and aerodynamic events.
The budget-friendly series is ideal for observing flow rate, predictive patterns, and aiding in modeling of the various disciplines and subdisciplines of fluid dynamics. Schlieren Imaging is a commonly used measurement technique for fluid flow and the monochrome Chronos cameras are ideal for aeronautical engineering. Kron Technologies offers a range of options to fit almost any research application.
Chronos high-speed imaging systems offer all-in-one, high-resolution, high framerate solutions that support fluid dynamics applications. Get up and running in minutes with the easy-to-use interface and extend the functionality with accessories such as microscope lenses, and high-speed lighting.

Some things to consider when choosing a high-speed camera for fluid dynamics are:
Frame-rate
What is the duration and speed of the event?
Chronos range from 1,000 - 40,000 FPS / 3-16 seconds of record time
Resolution
What is the level of detail required to capture the event?
Chronos range from 1280x1024 to 1920x1080HD max resolution.
Light Sensitivity
What is the lighting sensitivity/contrast required to capture the event?
Chronos range from ISO 320-16,000 depending upon model and sensor type (color or monochrome).
Subject Matter
What is the size and distance from the subject?
Chronos offers a selection of lenses from microscope to 12.5mm-75mm to capture events near or far.
Testimonial
Chronos cameras are an exceptional value for my research that focuses on investigating ice formation in cloud droplets.
