A two-dimensional particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to measure velocity and turbulence of air flow around a heated manikin in a large room (volume about 80 m3). Measurements were operated in four horizontal and ten vertical planes. The article describes the PIV system and the type of results which were obtained.
