The WT342(d) offers a cost-effective option for installing a wind tunnel with a spacious test section in a laboratory environment. It is delivered in individual segments (on rollers and including an assembly plan), eliminating the need for on-site assembly by our engineers. To suppress turbulence, the wind tunnel features a honeycomb straightener within a honeycomb cassette, followed by three screens. These are accessible through inspection hatches for cleaning. The sophisticated design of the diffuser ensures separation-free guidance of the flow to the vibration-isolated axial fan in the shortest possible installation space. To reduce noise emissions, an absorption silencer is installed downstream of the fan. At the customer’s request, a single-axis traverse has been integrated into the roof window of the test section in the WT342(d). The system is controlled using a potentiometer or, for an additional charge, centrally using the proven wind tunnel control BWT-Control, conveniently via touch panel. A wind tunnel scale is also available as an option. |
