The Low-Speed Wind Tunnel is used to measure wind resistance and aerodynamic performance for ships, bridges, steel structures, and offshore structures.
Low-Speed Wind TunnelThe Low-Speed Wind Tunnel is a horizontal circulating flow type of wind tunnel for structures. A part of the measuring section is movable and to be used with open type. The measuring section located in its back part is shaped long to conduct boundary-layer simulated tests.
