AFF097 Open Wind Tunnel Didactic Equipment Teaching Hydrodynamics Lab Equipment
Description
 open wind tunnel for a variety of aerodynamic experiments
 homogeneous flow through the flow straightener and special nozzle contour
 transparent measuring section

A wind tunnel is the classic experiment system for aerodynamic flow experiments. The model being studied remains at rest while the flow medium is set in motion, and thus the desired flow around the model is generated.
AFF097 is an “Eiffel” type open wind tunnel used to demonstrate and measure the aerodynamic properties of various models. For this purpose, air is drawn in from the environment and accelerated. The air flows around a model,such as an aerofoil, in a measuring section. The air is then decelerated in a diffuser and pumped back into the open by a fan.
