P3290 Supersonic Wind Tunnel

The P3290 Supersonic Wind Tunnel is an open, continuously operating #supersonic #wind #tunnel with a rectangular measuring section #Transonic and #Supersonic flows from Mach 0.8 up to Mach 1.8 can be achieved with interchangeable measuring sections and #nozzle profiles

P3290 Supersonic Wind Tunnel

Experimental Capabilities:

1. Pressure distribution along a convergent-divergent nozzle.
2. Pressure distribution and pressure loss in channel flow at high Mach number.
3. Demonstration of #Schlieren method.
4. Observation of flow patterns around the aerofoils with the aid of Schlieren optics.
5. Observation of occurring shock waves with the aid of Schlieren optics.
6. Determination of #Mach Number via the angle of shock waves.
7. Comparison of theory and experiment.
