Flow visualization            

Procedure:

  1. Start the smoke generator and connect it to smoke injector.
  2. Mount a model (cylinder or airfoil) in the wind tunnel test section.
  3. Start the wind tunnel and setup a velocity.
  4. Observe and record the flow structures.
  5. Observe the different flow structures:
  • Difference between the flow structure of different size of cylinder
  • Change in flow structure with increase in angle of attack of airfoil
