COMPARISON OF SQUARE AND CIRCULAR SECTIONED WIND TUNNEL PERFORMANCE

Year 2021, Volume: 6 Issue: 2, 50 - 59, 31.10.2021

Abstract

In this study, square and circular sectioned subsonic wind tunnel performance is examined numerically. The computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis of three-dimensional (3D) flow in square and circular sectioned wind tunnel is used for comparison. Experimental studies are very important in designing of a new product. In the aerodynamic designs, wind tunnel tests are commonly used in experimental studies. In the experimental studies accuracy is the most critical point to verify the results. Turbulence intensity is the main drawback of the wind tunnels. Hence in this study, turbulence intensity of the square and circular sectioned desktop size wind tunnel is investigated.
