[en] In order to reduce particle image velocimetry measurement error, we manufactured an ellipsoidal polyhedral mirror and placed it between a camera and flow target to capture n images of identical particles from n (=80 maximum) different directions. The 3D particle positions were determined from the ensemble average of _nC₂ intersecting points of a pair of line-of-sight back-projected points from a particle found in any combination of two images in the n images. The method was then applied to a rigid-body rotating flow and a turbulent pipe flow. In the former measurement, bias error and random error fell in a range of  ±0.02 pixels and 0.02–0.05 pixels, respectively; additionally, random error decreased in proportion to . In the latter measurement, in which the measured value was compared to direct numerical simulation, bias error was reduced and random error also decreased in proportion to . (paper)
