Automated Wind Tunnel
Description
The automated wind tunnel has been designed based on the Flotek or Aerolab wind tunnels. It can be used as a research bench as well as an educational laboratory.
The test bench is controlled by software developed in LabVIEW graphical programming environment. It can be used for the study of methods for determination of basic aerodynamic characteristics of the studied models, aerodynamic profiles and geometric figures.
The wind tunnel is equipped with National Instruments hardware and data acquisition system, 24 channel pressure sensors array and single or triaxial strain measurement sensor.
Features
Control and measurement of air speed in the test section
Pressure measurement in 24 channels
Axial force measurement acting on the model in the test section
Fan RPM speed measurement

Automated Airfoils Deformation Research Lab
The automated medium wind tunnel is an accostable scientific and research laboratory bench. It can be useful for carrying out research and hands-on works in the high and secondary educational institutions. Due to its affordability, the medium wind tunnel makes it possible to duplicate tests performed with the use of more expensive large-scale wind tunnels.
