Subsonic Wind Tunnels
Set of two vehicle drag models
A generic model van and car to allow students to compare the different coefficient of drag for each vehicle. If using the optional smoke generator (AFA11) the flow of air around the vehicles can be observed.
Flutter Wing
AF1300R - Experiment
An aerofoil suspended on springs within a frame, used to demonstrate wing flutter. The suspension positions of the wing can be altered, as can the angle of attack.
Aircraft Model - High Wing
The high wing model aircraft with NACA profile wings for use with the Large Subsonic Wind Tunnel (AF1600) is good for experiments with lift, drag and pitching moment of fixed wing aircraft.
SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 600mm
AF1600S - Package
An open circuit suction subsonic wind tunnel with a working section of 600 mm by 600 mm and 1250 mm long. Package includes a Three-Component Balance, Dual Axis Pressure Traverse and associated instrumentation such as a 32-Way Pressure Display Unit and Versatile Data Acquisition System (VDAS-F).
Aircraft Model - Low Wing
A low wing model aircraft with NACA2415 profile wings for use with TecQuipment's Large Subsonic Wind Tunnel (AF1600S)
Three-Dimensional Drag Models
A set of different shape models for use with the Large Subsonic Wind Tunnel (AF1600S) each with identical frontal area to allow students to compare the different coefficient of drag for each shape. Includes a dummy stem for tests to cancel out the drag due to each model’s support arm.
NACA2412 Aerofoil with Variable Flap
A 150mm chord NACA2412 aerofoil with 590 span featuring a variable flap that adjusts +/- 90 degrees for use with the AF1600 Subsonic Wind Tunnel.
NACA0012 Aerofoil with Tappings
A 150 mm chord NACA0012 aerofoil with 595 mm span and 20 static pressure tappings.
Flat Plate Bundary Layer Model Roughened and Smooth
A pair of boundary layer models with a mounting plate, also a pitot and a static probe for investigating boundary layer. One plate is roughened, the other smooth to allow comparisons on boundary layer growth.
Cylinder Model with Pressure Tapping
A cylinder model that spans the full width of the working section of the AF1600S Subsonic Wind Tunnel.
MODULAR AIR FLOW BENCH
A fully mobile bench to provide basic airflow facilities to enable a wide range of practical airflow investigations. Suitable for demonstration, laboratory and project work at a basic level.
SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL 300mm
AF1300 - Base Unit
An open circuit suction subsonic wind tunnel with a working section of 300 mm by 300 mm and 600 mm long.
