Abstract |
|
The project is to build a small scale wind tunnel for the purpose of study of aerodynamics forces for students at college level. It also includes automation in wind tunnel. The wind tunnel can be controlled over a network through laptop or mobile connected to that particular network. The type of wind tunnel is open return type. This automated wind tunnel will enable the student to study the aerodynamics in co-operative environment. In Indian market there were no manufacturer of wind tunnel test rig. The test rig available in India were imported from other countries and were too costly. Therefore the colleges can't bear the cost of the test rig. As aerodynamics has great importance in many engineering fields, therefore it was very necessary to have a wind tunnel test rig in the colleges. But colleges could not afford the costly imported test rig in India. |
