## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority is currently seeking tenders for the design, supply, and delivery of a Flow Imaging System for SmalLab, aimed at enhancing research capabilities in volumetric flow field imaging. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically targeting instruments for measuring quantities and flow-measuring equipment. The tender period is active, ending on 17th February 2021, while the contract is set to commence on 24th February 2021 and conclude by 30th April 2021. The project is located at the Culham Science Centre in Abingdon, England, and is being conducted through an open procedure to ensure broad participation.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in measurement technology, research and development, and flow measurement instruments. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to submit proposals, as the procurement is open to various suppliers who can provide the complete system, including hardware, software, installation, and training. Businesses with expertise in high-resolution imaging and fluid dynamics will find this project particularly relevant, positioning them well to establish a partnership with a leading research authority.

## Notice

UKAEA requires a system for volumetric flow field imaging to be used to image water flows within the test section of a small research flow loop. The system is required to provide high-resolution volumetric velocimetry data sufficient to provide time-resolved measurements of three components of velocity in water flows of up to 5 m/s. A complete system is required that provides all necessary hardware and software, installation, and training
