About This Product
A flow visualisation wind tunnel lets students see how air moves around a body instead of only calculating it. Smoke traces from a rake are carried through the test section, and the pattern of the streamlines shows where the flow follows a model and where it is disturbed. It suits class demonstrations, student experiments and research projects in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics, and the clear smoke can be photographed for reports. Models are turned on the rotatable support to compare how different shapes affect the flow.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What wind speed does the Flow Visualisation Wind Tunnel reach?
It is listed as capable of wind speeds of 10 m/s in the 25 × 250 × 250 mm test section.
Q2. How is the smoke produced?
Smoke is produced by atomising heated, medicinal-quality white oil in an air stream. A smoke rake is provided immediately before the contraction.
Q3. What is supplied with it?
A basic set of models, which are mounted on a rotatable support in the viewing area, and a technical manual covering product description, installation, operation and maintenance.
