The wind tunnel test is the most direct method to research aerodynamics of automobile and automobile parts. In order to study aerodynamic characteristics of the wing and the correctness of the comparison of CFD software, the wing experiment using wind tunnel.
Q. How wind tunnel is useful for civil engineering structures?
Wind-tunnel tests have been employed to predict the aerodynamic behavior of a given bridge structure, to estimate important aerodynamic parameters, and to investigate aerodynamic stability.

Q. What is the advantage of testing cars in a wind tunnel over testing cars on a track?
Wind-tunnel tests help engineers identify important changes to build better racecars. They might alter the car’s body to give it a more aerodynamic shape, which can reduce drag and boost a car’s speed.
Q. How many wind tunnels are there in the UK?
seventeen wind tunnels
Q. Which country has hypersonic wind tunnel?
India
Q. Does China have hypersonic wind tunnel?
Beijing: China has assembled a wind tunnel named JF-22 which is capable of simulating flights at up to 10km per second – 30 times the speed of sound. This technology will put China decades ahead of the rest of the world in hypersonic technology.
Q. How do hypersonic missiles work?
7 • Hypersonic cruise missiles are powered by high-speed, air-breathing engines, or “scramjets,” after acquiring their target. Hypersonic weapons could challenge detection and defense due to their speed, maneuverability, and low altitude of flight.
Q. How does a hypersonic wind tunnel work?
Typical hypersonic tunnel diffuser is comprised of fixed contraction followed by a constant area diffuser duct. This contraction reduces the flow Mach number. A complex three dimensional shock pattern executes this Mach number reduction. These shock waves interact with the boundary layer during the process.
