More about the product
GUNT HM 170
Open Wind Tunnel is designed for experiments in aerodynamics and fluid mechanics with an Eiffel-type wind tunnel.
It features a wide range of accessories, a transparent, closed measuring section, and inlet contour, nozzle, and diffuser made of GRP.
The unit includes a variable-speed fan motor for energy-efficient operation and a flow straightener to reduce turbulence.
Key features:
- Inclined tube manometer for air velocity display
- Electronic two-component force sensor for measuring drag and lift forces
- Digital display of drag and lift on the measuring amplifier
- Optional data acquisition system (HM 170.60) for displaying velocity, forces, moment, displacement/angle, and differential pressure.
