• 1Subsonic tunnel

Subsonic tunnel[edit]

Low-speed wind tunnels are used for operations at very low Mach number, with speeds in the test section up to 480 km/h (~ 134 m/s, M = 0.4) (Barlow, Rae, Pope; 1999). They may be of open-return type (also known as the Eiffel type, see figure), or closed-return flow (also known as the Prandtl type, see figure) with air moved by a propulsion system usually consisting of large axial fans that increase the dynamic pressure to overcome the viscous losses.

Open wind tunnel[edit]

The working principle is based on the continuity and Bernoulli's equation:

The continuity equation is given by:

Af100 Subsonic Wind Tunnel User Manual Download

${\displaystyle AV=constant\Rightarrow \frac{dA}{A}=-\frac{dV}{V}}$

The Bernoulli equation states:-

${\displaystyle P_{total}=P_{static}+P_{dynamic}=P_s+\frac{1}{2}\rho V^2}$

Putting Bernoulli into the continuity equation gives:

${\displaystyle V_m^2=2\frac{C^2}{C^2-1}\frac{P_{settl}-p_m}{\rho }\approx 2\frac{\mathrm{\Delta }p}{\rho }}$

The contraction ratio of a windtunnel can now be calculated by:${\displaystyle C=\frac{A_{settl}}{A_m}}$

Closed wind tunnel[edit]

In a return-flow wind tunnel the return duct must be properly designed to reduce the pressure losses and to ensure smooth flow in the test section.The compressible flow regime:Again with the continuity law, but now for isentropic flow gives:

Subsonic Wind Tunnel Experiment

${\displaystyle -\frac{d\rho }{\rho }=-\frac{1}{a^2}\frac{dp}{\rho }=-\frac{1}{a^2}\frac{-\rho VdV}{\rho }=\frac{V}{a^2}dV}$

The 1-D area-velocity is known as:

${\displaystyle \frac{dA}{A}=(M^2-1)\frac{dV}{V}}$

The minimal area A where M=1, also known as the sonic throat area is than given for a perfect gas:

${\displaystyle {\left(\frac{A}{A_{throat}}\right)}^2=\frac{1}{M^2}{\left(\frac{2}{\gamma +1}\left(1+\frac{\gamma -1}{2}{M}^2\right)\right)}^{\frac{\gamma +1}{\gamma -1}}}$

Transonic tunnel[edit]

High subsonic wind tunnels (0.4 < M < 0.75) and transonic wind tunnels (0.75 < M < 1.2) are designed on the same principles as the subsonic wind tunnels. The highest speed is reached in the test section. The Mach number is approximately 1 with combined subsonic and supersonic flow regions. Testing at transonic speeds presents additional problems, mainly due to the reflection of the shock waves from the walls of the test section (see figure below or enlarge the thumb picture at the right). Therefore, perforated or slotted walls are required to reduce shock reflection from the walls. Since important viscous or inviscid interactions occur (such as shock waves or boundary layer interaction) both Mach and Reynolds number are important and must be properly simulated.Large-scale facilities and/or pressurized or cryogenic wind tunnels are used.

de Laval nozzle[edit]

With a sonic throat, the flow can be accelerated or slowed down. This follows from the 1D area–velocity equation. If an acceleration to supersonic flow is required, a convergent-divergent nozzle is required.Otherwise:

Subsonic Wind Tunnel Design

• Subsonic (M < 1) then converging
• Sonic throat (M = 1) where ${\displaystyle \frac{dA}{dx}=0}$
• Supersonic (M >1 ) then ${\displaystyle \frac{dA}{dx}>0\Rightarrow }$ diverging

Conclusion: The Mach number is controlled by the expansion ratio ${\displaystyle \frac{A}{A_{throat}}}$
