Western Michigan University's applied aerodynamics laboratory took over the advanced design wind tunnel from the former McDonnell Douglas Aircraft ... models with very low operating costs and a ...

The A1 wind tunnel at the University of Bristol is closed-section wind tunnel, with a 2.1 m x 1.5 m octagonal test section and can reach flow speed of 60 m/s. The return section, measuring at 5.5 m x ...

The Low-Speed Research Wind Tunnel was installed in October of 2015 and a thorough qualification of the flow qualitiy will be conducted during the Spring 2016 Semester. The architectural design of the ...

Research into incident airflow noise sources and the development of noise reduction measures will play a major role in the design of future aircraft ... Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und ...

Equipment of this nature has remained imperative to the quality of the courses at the College, and in 1967 the Aeronautical Engineering Department had ‘expanded considerably in recent years and the ...

However, there’s nothing stopping you building a wind tunnel of your very own, and it may even be easier than you think! [Jude Pullen] has whipped up just such a design with DIY in mind.

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 ...

it follows that a wind tunnel cannot be driven by propellers, fans, or any such device, and exceed Mach 1 wind speed, either. So it begs the question: Just how do they do it? You might think that ...

These wind tunnels are also being used for research in areas such as: Aerodynamics of Jet Engine Turbine Blades at Transonic Speeds Control of Shock-Boundary Layer Interactions at Transonic-Supersonic ...

Originally built in the 1890s to speed goods and people to London by ... primarily as an affordable alternative to traditional wind tunnel testing, though it could be put to may more uses.

which can take as much as two hours in conventional wind tunnels, can now be done in minutes. The combined outcome of real-time data collection and increased automation: increased speed to market.
