Wind Flow Examples

uniform wind tunnel

Steady Laminar Flow

Mimics the constant flow you would see in a traditional wind tunnel, which is great for evaluating aerodynamics.

turbulence wind tunnel

Turbulent Flow

Ideal for simulating the conditions an aircraft is likely to face in its work environment due to weather and topology.

wind tunnel shear effect

Shear Flow

Describes a wind profile where adjacent layers of fluids move parallel to each other at different speeds.

time variable wind tunnel

Time Variable Flow

Ideal for simulating the conditions an aircraft is likely to face in its work environment due to weather and topology.

wind tunnel gust effect

Wind Gust

Sudden changes in wind speed can be challenging for an aircraft to navigate. Gusts can be simulated by rapidly fluctuating the wind speed.
