Wind Tunnels: Design Considerations in Wind Tunnel Testing of Cyclists
2019This chapter describes and summarizes design considerations required to develop an accurate and repeatable wind tunnel-based testing program to measure and optimize the aerodynamic drag of athletes, their apparel, and competition equipment. The chapter focuses on drag measurement techniques for the sport of road cycling with the intent that similar ...

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1943
THE wind tunnel described in this report forms one of the major items of equipment of the Division of Aeronautics of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research. The primary purpose of the tunnel is for tests of firms' designs. The size of the working section was chosen so that some full size aircraft components could be tested, while the power ...

SP-240: Performance-Based Design of Concrete Building for Wind Loads, 2006
Synopsis: Wind-tunnel testing is introduced as a means of providing accurate design loads for the structural frames of buildings in a timely and economic manner, overcoming the inherent limitations of code and analytical procedures. Various types of model tests and their relative advantages are described. The nature of the information that the building’

Physics Bulletin, 1971
On p292 of the May 1971 issue of Physics Bulletin a description is given of the wind tunnel recently opened by Specialized Mouldings which is referred to as Britain's first commercially operated wind tunnel. I should like to draw your attention to the wind tunnel which Redland has been operating since 1966 in the structural testing division of the ...

1991
This paper opens with a brief review of cryogenic wind tunnels and their use for high Reynolds number testing. Emphasis is on operational and aerodynamic testing experience in the NASA Langley 0.3-m Transonic Cryogenic Tunnel (TCT). Since we built the 0.3-m TCT in 1973, it has logged over 8000 hours of running at cryogenic temperatures.
