Of the many roads leading to successful Artemis missions, one is paved with high-tech computing chips called superchips.

Members of the SuperSonic/TranSonic/WindTunnel team work on their equipment at the Air Breathing Test Cell at UAH's Johnson Research Center. The project is under the ...

Advanced experimental techniques have been developed for application in the Volkswagen automotive wind tunnels. Such procedures are: laser–Doppler anemometry (LDA) for detailed flow–field measurements ...

Typically, when we talk about wind tunnels, we think of the big facilities in use by the aerospace and motorsports industries. However, there’s nothing stopping you building a wind tunnel of your very ...

When comparing the efficiency of different wind turbine blade designs, [AdamEnt] found using a hair dryer wasn’t the best tool for the job. Enter his new 3D-printed wind tunnel. After several ...

Air flow in the natural environment affects the distribution of organisms, mechanical stresses, heat losses by convection, and moisture distribution. Air flow was visualized by bubble tracers in a ...

In this historical photo from the U.S. space agency, an F-16 Scamp model being tested in the BART on Oct. 6, 1992. The photo shows a basic flow visualization test using smoke and a laser light sheet ...

Aerodynamics have always been an important part of automotive design. A lower drag coefficient means that it takes less energy for a vehicle to overcome air resistance, or more simply put: better fuel ...

The small wind tunnel with a 16-by-16 inch test section is a low speed, open return tunnel, as shown in Figure 1. It is mainly used for airfoil section tests and teaching. he velocity is up to 50 m/s.
