KURING Wind Tunnel: Aerodynamic Characteristics Tests of Road Vehicles in Time-Dependent Winds
An advanced wind tunnel has been introduced as a facility for road vehicle development at the Kindai University (KURING). In this paper, the features of this wind tunnel, which can generate arbitrary patterns of time-varying wind velocities, are first described. There are four representative airflow patterns: steady wind with constant velocity, pulsating wind with oscillating velocity, gusts of...
متن کاملWind tunnel tests of a free yawing downwind wind turbine
This research paper presents preliminary results on a behavioural study of a free yawing downwind wind turbine. A series of wind tunnel tests was performed at the TU Delft Open Jet Facility with a three bladed downwind wind turbine and a rotor radius of 0.8 meters. The setup includes an off the shelf three bladed hub, nacelle and generator on which relatively flexible blades are mounted. The to...
متن کاملClosed-Loop Control Wind Tunnel Tests on an Adaptive Wind Turbine Blade for Load Reduction
Wind tunnel tests on a non-rotating, dynamically scaled wind turbine blade equipped with variable trailing edge geometry were carried out. The effectiveness of the system for active load reduction purposes, with the interaction between structural dynamics, aerodynamics and control was tested. The actuation of the adaptive trailing edge was based on a piezoelectric bender actuator. The full aero...
متن کاملWind Tunnel Tests for Wind Pressure Distribution on Gable Roof Buildings
Gable roof buildings are widely used in industrial buildings. Based on wind tunnel tests with rigid models, wind pressure distributions on gable roof buildings with different aspect ratios were measured simultaneously. Some characteristics of the measured wind pressure field on the surfaces of the models were analyzed, including mean wind pressure, fluctuating wind pressure, peak negative wind ...
متن کاملOn-road and wind-tunnel measurement of motorcycle helmet noise.
The noise source mechanisms involved in motorcycling include various aerodynamic sources and engine noise. The problem of noise source identification requires extensive data acquisition of a type and level that have not previously been applied. Data acquisition on track and on road are problematic due to rider safety constraints and the portability of appropriate instrumentation. One way to add...
