  • Wind Tunnel Testing
    Krohn-Hite Calibrators are included in an Automatic Balance Calibration System (ABCS) which calibrates wind tunnel balances. Balance is a special force and moment sensor used to measure the forces on the models, under test, in the wind tunnel. (Israel Aircraft Industries, Ltd., Commercial Aircraft
  • The Benchtop Wind Tunnel (.pdf)
    We are all familiar with wind tunnels and have seen films or photos of their use in aircraft and spacecraft design as well as in automobile ads touting the aerodynamic features of this car or that. In more recent times, they have found new uses in the design of bridges to prevent resonance in high
  • Pressure in a Wind Tunnel
    . Their 1901 wind tunnel design provided an airflow of about 30 mph and balance instruments that they designed and built measured lift and drag to test their concepts on portions of the design.
  • Case Study: High-Speed Cameras Aid Wing Deformation Measurement Test in Wind Tunnels
    In this wind tunnel testing application, German-Dutch Wind Tunnels chose Emergent 10GigE cameras with 20MP CMOS sensors because its optical fiber interface allowed them to run all four cameras from the wind tunnel simulation to a single remote PC. German-Dutch Wind Tunnels (DNW) is one
  • Hypersonic Wind Tunnel Acoustic Pressure Sensors
    A better understanding of boundary-layer transition will allow design engineers to improve the design of thermal protection systems by reducing the weight of the vehicle, decreasing fuel burn and increasing the payload carrying capability for the mission.
  • Aircraft System Identification: Theory and Practice
    Aircraft System Identification: Theory and Practice. Using actual flight test and wind tunnel data for case studies and examples, this book provides a comprehensive overview of both the theoretical underpinnings and the practical application of aircraft modeling based on experimental data.
  • Small-scale Turbo Compressors for More Efficient Take-off/Landing and Cruise of Future Aircraft
    allows for short take-off and landings, and enables drag reduction during cruise and, therefore, lower fuel consumption during long distance flights. The key technology providing this Super-Lift is an ultra-compact turbo compressor, which Celeroton has realized prototypes for wind tunnel testing.
  • CIP Systems Raise the Bar on Cleanliness
    . But it also has a fairly comprehensive laboratory that includes wind tunnels, atomization analysis and other tools to analyze sprayer performance. Swagelok, Inc. (Solon, Ohio) has performed extensive computer testing of its fittings, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model flow patterns. In one
