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 ...
U.S. startup Rune Aero is using an interactive virtual wind tunnel powered by physics-based machine learning algorithms to ...
Imagine a heavy book resting on a table. If you try to gently push the book across the table with the tip of your finger, it ...
The channel’s most recent video is of the host, Dan Markham, giving a tour of a GM wind tunnel, which is the biggest of its kind in the world. Made in 1980, this massive wind tunnel is located ...
The basic research wind tunnel at Western Michigan University's applied aerodynamics laboratory is shown schematically in Figure 1. It was donated by General Motors. This tunnel will be set up as long ...
The small wind tunnel with a 16-by-16 inch test section is a low speed, open return tunnel, as shown in Figure 1. It is mainly used for airfoil section tests and teaching. he velocity is up to 50 m/s.
Postdoctoral researcher Girguis O. Sedky sitting inside of the wind tunnel, showing the covert feather-inspired flaps attached to the 3D-printed model airplane wing. The flaps deploy automatically ...
Characterizing the aerodynamic performance of a vehicle usually requires a wind tunnel since it’s difficult to control all variables when actually driving. Unless you had some kind of perfectly ...
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 ...
