Wind tunnel testing of sports stadiums
Construction and Building Materials, 1991Abstract The paper describes the importance of wind tunnel testing of scale models to determine wind pressure and air flow distribution on and around major stadium complexes. The effects of wind on major grandstands is considered from a static, dynamic and environmental viewpoint.

Wind tunnel test on mean wind forces and peak pressures acting on wind turbine nacelles
, 2014Mean wind force coefficients of nacelles are investigated by a wind tunnel test and are compared with those in current codes, such as the Germanischer Lloyd Guideline 2010 (GL2010) and Eurocode, in order to clarify the effects of the ground, presence of ...

Use of the Wind Tunnel Test Method for Obtaining Design Wind Loads on Roof-Mounted Solar Arrays
, 2013ASCE 7 does not provide design wind loads for roof-mounted solar panels. This paper discusses the use of the wind tunnel test method, called Method 3 in ASCE 7-05, which was originally intended for obtaining design wind loads for individual buildings ...

80% Scaled NASA Common Research Model Wind Tunnel Test of JAXA at Relatively Low Reynolds Number
, 2013A wind tunnel test of a 80% scaled copy of the NASA Common Research Model (CRM) was performed in the 2m × 2m transonic wind tunnel of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The wind tunnel model was fabricated by JAXA consulting NASA Langley Research

Wind tunnel test of a canard airplane
KSME International Journal, 2002A low speed wind tunnel test was conducted for a canard airplane model in KARI LSWT. The purpose of the presented paper is to investigate the proper testing approach to correct tare precisely and the interference effects for the canard models which has 21% of canard-to-wing area ratio.

Fourth Annual IEEE Semiconductor Thermal and Temperature Measurement Symposium, 1988
An introduction to wind tunnel design, wind tunnel data uncertainty analysis, and nondimensional presentation of measured data is presented. The primary components of a wind tunnel and the purposes of each are discussed. The importance of delivering uniform flow to the test section cross section is considered with regard to the effect of nonuniform ...

Cryogenic Wind Tunnels for Aerodynamic Testing
1998Until recently, the problem of low test Reynolds number has limited the usefulness of wind tunnels, especially at transonic speeds. For general-purpose testing, we achieve the best solution to the problem of low test Reynolds number when we operate a relatively big tunnel (2 × 2 m test section or larger) at a relatively high pressure (up to 3 or 4 bar)
