Description

CYLINDER MODEL

A cylinder model that spans the full width of the working section of the Subsonic Wind Tunnel (AF1450S). A holder (included with the wind tunnel) supports the model in the tunnel. Also, the optional Three-Component Balance (AF1450t, available separately).

The model includes a single pressure tapping so, by rotating the model, students can find the pressure distribution around the cylinder. TecQuipment offers several suitable pressure-measuring instruments (available separately).

Using a Pitot tube, students can traverse the model wake to find the downstream pressure distribution and find the drag on the model. They can compare this to direct measurements, obtained using a balance.

TecQuipment’s Smoke Generator (AFA11, not included) increases the educational value of the experiments by showing the flow of air around the model.

SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 450mm

VDAS AF1450S - Package

A sizable open circuit, suction subsonic wind tunnel with a working section of 450 mm by 450 mm and 1000 mm length. It provides a cost-effective balance between being able to carry out advanced aerodynamics study, while having a smaller footprint than the largest of TecQuipment’s wind tunnels.
