Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Flow Visualisation Wind Tunnel.
Provision is made for a smoke rake immediately before the contraction.
Smoke is produced by the atomisation of a heated, medicinal quality,
white oil in an air stream. The test section is 25mm x 250mm x 250mm and
has a viewing area that can be illuminated by an integral strip light.
This is a combined wind tunnel and smoke generator powered by a
synchronous a.c. motor driving a centrifugal blower and capable of
producing wind speeds of 10 m/s in the test section. The resulting
vapour is non-hazardous and gives a highly visible smoke ideal for
photography. A basic set of models is provided. Low turbulence air flow
is achieved by the use of 3 gauze screens, a fine honeycomb and a 9:1
contraction. A technical manual including product description
installation operation and maintenance manual. Models are mounted in the
viewing area on a rotatable support.
