Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is an experimental method of researching fluids that is employed in fields such as automobiles, aviation, civil engineering, and medicine. It is used as a complement to computer simulation. Three-dimensional analysis of PIV data requires a high-performance computer, large-capacity storage, and a powerful visualization engine. Also, researchers require an environment for collaborative PIV research using powerful computer resources. The PIV Web Laboratory (PIV-WL) was developed to meet this requirement. This system is based on UNICORE Grid middleware and has multi-job management and 3D remote visualization functions. We used this system to analyze the flow fields on delta wings and created a collaborative research environment in which many users can manipulate visualization results simultaneously by remote control.
