Wind Tunnel Solutions

AERODYNAMIC ENGINEERING offers variable Mach number supersonic wind tunnels with test section sizes ranging from 1-inch x 1-inch (2.54 cm x 2.54 cm) to 12-inch x 12-inch (30.5 cm x 30.5 cm). These systems can be customized with compressors, dryers, and plumbing to meet a wide range of research and educational needs. Contact AERODYNE for a customized quote.

 

Available Configurations

AERODYNAMIC ENGINEERING's Variable Mach Number Wind Tunnels are available in two configurations:

 

Console Configuration (For 1-inch and 2-inch systems)

A compact, self-contained laboratory requiring only compressed air. Includes:

  • Oil separator

  • Heatless desiccant air dryer

  • ASME Code storage and stagnation tanks

  • Electro-mechanical pressure control valve

  • Complete Schlieren system

  • Set of four models

  • Model positioning quadrant

  • Diffuser

 

Standard Configuration (For 3-inch to 12-inch systems)

A modular wind tunnel system, including:

  • Electro-mechanical pressure valve

  • ASME Code stagnation tank

  • Supersonic wind tunnel and diffuser

Note: Standard systems require a compressor, oil separator, dryer, storage tank, and associated plumbing, all of which can be supplied by AERODYNE.
