Test Section 2 (3.5x2.5m)
The second wind tunnel section has a rectangular cross section, which makes it suitable for the study of atmospheric flow test cases. It is equipped with a remotely controlled turn table floor, a three directions motor driven remotely controlled traversing mechanism and a high accuracy six-component balance for the measurement of the airloads.
This section is suitable for small rotors testing and industrial aerodynamics applications such as flow visualizations and assessment of aerodynamic forces exerted on buildings (urban areas buildings, industrial complexes, green houses, bridges and cooling towers), wind turbines siting applications, environmental pollution studies, studies of the gases dispersal from chimneys of buildings and thermoelectric power stations etc.
