Aerodynamics – Air Resistance, Drag Coefficient, and Pressure Curve

Precision manometer measures wind speed and pressure.

• For Measuring Air Resistance
• Suction and Pressure Fan
• Saddle Base
• Aerodynamics Working Section
• Machine Determines Drag Coefficient

Users examine the relationship between the air resistance and the flow speed with a circular disk. The flow speed is measured with a pressure head sensor and the air resistance with a dynamometer. The machine also determines the drag coefficient for various flow bodies with equal cross-sections. The flow speed is measured using a pressure head sensor and the air resistance with a dynamometer.

Users measure the static pressure at various points on the underside of an airfoil profile. The measured curve not only illustrates the air resistance but also explains the lift acting on the airfoil.
