ARC just finished a 31,000-square-foot expansion, including more office space to handle research projects involving mainstream vehicles. The next big step is a $100 million wind tunnel that can ...

Researchers from the Tokyo University of Science evaluated the utility of C/UHTCMC at temperatures above 2000 oC using arc-wind tunnel testing (pictured above). These results show degradation of ...

The basic research wind tunnel at Western Michigan University's applied aerodynamics laboratory is shown ... The turning vanes were made of circular arc sections with straight trailing-edge extension.

In terms of measurement capabilities, the wind tunnel is equipped with three Dantec hotwire CTA system (6 channels), 2D PIV, several pressure scanners, hotfilm CTA system (80 channels), two source ...

The H2K of the DLR Institute of Aerodynamics and Flow Technology in Cologne is a wind tunnel with a free-jet test section. The facility enables aerodynamic and aerothermal characterisation for scale ...

The AWB provides the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) with a quiet wind tunnel that enables the very low-noise production of airflow at velocities of up to 60 ...

Before anything leaves ground though, these machines are tested in wind tunnels. [Scott Manley]’s video “How Hypersonic Wind Tunnels Recreate Mach 20” (embedded below) does a wonderful job ...

The low turbulence wind tunnel (A3) is a closed section wind tunnel and is designed to provide a highly uniform and low turbulence flow. The A3 wind tunnel was designed and built by Dr R. V. Barrett* ...

Wind tunnels are devices that provide invaluable insights into aerodynamics. They are carefully designed and built environments, mirroring the physics of the natural world, in which air flows can be ...

Typically, when we talk about wind tunnels, we think of the big facilities in use by the aerospace and motorsports industries. However, there’s nothing stopping you building a wind tunnel of ...

Wind tunnel testing services provide test facilities and technical staff for aerodynamic testing. Tests may be performed on prototype aircraft, helicopters, trains, cars, or buildings. Wind tunnel ...

Here in the UK, the only available wind tunnel is in the Midlands at Horiba MIRA and as well as dating back to the ’60s it doesn’t feature a moving road. For UK vehicle manufacturers and race ...
