A Low Cost Numerical Simulation of a Supersonic Wind-tunnel Design
In the present paper, a supersonic wind-tunnel is designed to maintain a flow with Mach number of 3 in a 30cm×30cm test section. An in-house CFD code is developed using the Roe scheme to simulate flow-field and detect location of normal shock in the supersonic wind-tunnel. In the Roe scheme, flow conditions at inner and outer sides of cell faces are determined using an upwind biased algorithm. ...
متن کاملAc 2007-1191: Design, Fabrication and Testing of a Low-speed Wind Tunnel Laboratory
Engineering Technology programs focus on delivering a hands-on engineering education. The students get introduced to the theoretical development of engineering concepts first, then they apply the concepts to solve practical problems and test the concepts in carefully designed experiments carried out in appropriate facilities. One of the key areas of instruction associated with a mechanical engi...
متن کاملComprehensive Parametric Study for Design Improvement of a Low-Speed AFPMSG for Small Scale Wind-Turbines
In this paper, a comprehensive parametric analysis for an axial-flux permanent magnet synchronous generator (AFPMSG), designed to operate in a small-scale wind-power applications, is presented, and the condition for maximum efficiency, minimum weight and minimum cost is deduced. Then a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) procedure based on the results of parametric study is proposed. Matching between t...
متن کاملLow-Speed Wind-Tunnel Tests on some Slender Airbus Configurations
An experimentalinvestigation has been made of the subsonic lift, drag and longitudinal stability characteristics of models representing some alternative slender airbus configurations. For the same wing planform of aspect ratio 1.4 the lift, drag and pitching moment have been measured for two wings of maximum thickness/chord ratio 4 and 9 per cent respectively, both without and with various body...
متن کاملDesign and calibration of a wind tunnel with a two dimensional contraction
A low speed, open circuit, laboratory wind tunnel has been redesigned for use in turbine blade cooling experiments. The two dimensional contraction was designed using a sixth order polynomial. This paper outlines the process of design optimisation, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to model the contraction. The parameters that were varied were the location of the point of inflection and ...
