This is the first of our 3 part series on wind tunnel testing. In this video, we introduce the concept of wind tunnel testing as well as discuss the process for acquiring aerodynamic data in a wind tunnel. We examine both force/moment data as well as non-traditional data such as pressure, flow visualization, and wake surveys.
Topics and timestamps:
0:00 – Introduction
1:04 – Why perform wind tunnel testing
4:19 – The Kirsten Wind Tunnel
17:03 – Data acquisition process
21:31 – Flow visualization
