Subsonic Wind Tunnel

Subsonic Wind Tunnel

CAT NO: DIDACTICNLE-Export-177002

Subsonic Wind Tunnel Description and Tender Specification:

Subsonic Wind Tunnel.
Subsonic Wind Tunnel The setup is an open wind tunnel used to demonstrate and measure the aerodynamic properties of various models. For this purpose, air is drawn in from the environment and accelerated. The air flows around a model, such as an aerofoil, in a measuring section. The air is then decelerated in a diffuser and pumped back into the open by a fan. The carefully designed intake nozzle and a flow straightener ensure a uniform velocity distribution with little turbulence in the closed measuring section. The test section is square in shape & made of tranparent plexiglass for students to visualise the process. The built-in axial fan with a variable-speed drive is characterised by an energy-efficient operation at high efficiency. Air velocities of up to 36 m/s are possible to be achieved in the wind tunnel. The trainer is equipped with an electronic two-component force sensor. Lift and drag are detected and displayed digitally. The air velocity in the test section is measured using a pitor tube. The standard accessories include Multitube Inclined Manometer, Static Pitot Tube, U tube Manometer, 2 Component Force Balance, Digital Force Indicator, Wide range of experimental modules like NACA aerofoils, drag models of diffrent shapes, Boundry Layer, Aeroplane Models etc are are available for use with wind tunnel & can be ordered seperately.An optional Data Acquisition System is also available for reading values of pressure, displacement/angle, velocity and force. These parameters can be transferred to a PC where they can be analysed with a windows based software.Optional accessories allow a variety of experiments, for example lift measurements, angle measurement, pressure distributions, boundary layer analysis or visualisation of streamlines.
