The outflow of airsoft bullets from a cylindrical storage container with narrow outlet is imaged by means of ultrafast X-ray computed tomography (UFXCT) at different heights above the outlet. Sequences of cross-sectional images were recorded over 30 s with a frame rate of 1000 fps in dual plane mode.
airsoft bullet diameter: 6 mm, diameter of cylindrical container: 90 mm, outlet diameter: 24 mm, filling height: 80 cm, measurement heights: 10 mm, 30 mm and 50 mm above outlet
