A computer-controlled wind tunnel

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1993
Abstract Many types of meteolorogical, environmental and boundary layer wind tunnels have been constructed to simulate atmospheric phenomena on buildings, structures and transport of air pollutants. New types of 2 and 3-dimensional wind tunnels have been constructed in our laboratory, which has multi-fans controlled by a computer.

Wind Tunnel Rotor Measurements

2022
Wind tunnels have been used extensively by the wind energy community to measure 2D airfoil performance (the subject of 2d Airfoil Measurements). However, despite their size limitations, wind tunnels have also been used for 3D rotating measurements.

Wind Tunnel Design for Wind Turbines

2021
Die weltweit steigende Anzahl an Windkraftwerken beschert der Weiterentwicklung an Windturbinen ebenfalls einen großen Aufschwung. Obwohl computerunterstützte Simulationsmethoden wie CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Erprobung von Windturbinen leisten, sind experimentell bestimmte Ergebnisse in diesem Bereich unerlässlich ...

Gustave Eiffel's wind tunnel

IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Magazine, 2018
The Eiffel Tower was built for the Paris Exposition of 1889. By 1903, Gustave Eiffel had become interested in the new subject of aerodynamics. In that year, he rigged up a cable from the second floor of the tower to the ground. Test objects could be dropped along the cable, and their reaction to wind resistance could be measured.

Wind Tunnels

The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1927
The wind channel and the whirling arm have been devised and perfected over a period of a number of years with a view to providing reliable aerodynamic data for aircraft designers. Of late years the wind channel has been used considerably more than the whirling arm.In the two pieces of apparatus distinct methods are used.

Subsonic Wind Tunnels

2020
Built by Gustave Eiffel, and still in use, the low speed wind tunnel at the Scientific and Technical Centre for Building (CSTB) located in Auteuil was inaugurated on 19 March 1912 (see Fig. 2.1).

Environmental wind tunnel

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1996
An environmental wind tunnel for producing air flow over an automotive vehicle includes a source of air under pressure and an elongated housing for receiving an automotive vehicle. The environmental wind tunnel has an upstream end coupled to the downstream end of the source of air under pressure, so that air is blown axially through the housing from ...
