the laminar-to-turbulent boundary-layer transition on wind tunnel models can nevertheless be detected. To visualize laminar and turbulent regions on a TSP painted surface, the method of temperature ...

Warhaft, Cambridge University Press, 1997. How many times a day do we turn on a faucet? Do it now. First very slowly, and you will see glassy, orderly flow. If there is no wind or other disturbance, ...

Due to its wide Mach and Reynolds number range, the Ludwieg tube wind tunnel is used for investigations into complex flow phenomena in supersonic and hypersonic flows and for the validation of ...

The wind tunnel features a 4’x4’ cross-section, sensors for wind speed, and provides high-resolution near-laminar flow up to 36 fps, allowing students to get hands-on with aerodynamics. Its modular ...

The transparent walls for observation are created out of acrylic, while a simple fan provides the necessary flow. The desk-sized wind tunnel can then be instrumented with a manometer, tachometer ...
