have been blocked you can view and copy the source of this page classification there are many different kinds of wind tunnels they are typically classified by the range of speeds that are achieved in the test section as follows low speed wind tunnel subsonic and transonic wind tunnel supersonic wind tunnel hypersonic wind tunnel high enthalpy wind tunnel wind tunnels are also classified by the orientation of air flow in the test section with respect to gravity typically they are oriented horizontally as happens during level flight a different class of wind tunnels are oriented vertically so that gravity can be balanced by drag instead of lift and these have become a popular form of recreation for simulating sky diving vertical wind tunnel wind tunnels are also classified based on their main use for those used with land vehicles such as cars and trucks the type of floor aerodynamics is also important these vary from stationary floors through to full moving floors with smaller moving floors and some attempt at boundary level control also being important aeronautical wind tunnels the main subcategories in the aeronautical wind tunnels are high reynolds number tunnels reynolds number is one of the governing similarity parameters for the simulation of flow in a wind tunnel for mach number less than 0 3 it is the primary parameter that governs the flow characteristics there are three main ways to simulate high reynolds number since it is not practical to obtain full scale reynolds number by use of a full scale vehicle citation needed date april 2022 pressurised tunnels test gases are pressurised to increase the reynolds number heavy gas tunnels heavier gases like freon and r 134a are used as test gases the transonic dynamics tunnel at nasa langley is an example of such a tunnel cryogenic tunnels test gas is cooled down to increase the reynolds number the european transonic wind tunnel uses this technique high altitude tunnels these are designed to test the effects of shock waves against various aircraft shapes in near vacuum in 1952 the university of california constructed the first two high altitude wind tunnels one for testing objects at convert 50 to 70 mi km above the earth and the second for tests at convert 80 to 200 mi km above the earth ref citation url https books google com books id 8dwdaaaambaj pg pa105 title windless wind tunnels for high

aeroacoustic tunnels these tunnels are used in the studies of noise generated by flow and its suppression high enthalpy a high enthalpy wind tunnel is intended to study flow of air around objects moving at speeds much faster than the local speed of sound hypersonic speeds enthalpy is the total energy of a gas stream composed of internal energy due to temperature the product of pressure and volume and the velocity of flow duplication of the conditions of hypersonic flight requires large volumes of high pressure heated air large pressurized hot reservoirs and electric arcs are two techniques used ref ronald smelt ed review of aeronautical wind tunnel facilities national academies 1988 pp 34 37 ref aquadynamic flume the aerodynamic principles of the wind tunnel work equally on watercraft except the water is more viscous and so sets greater forces on the object being tested a looping flume is typically used for underwater aquadynamic testing the interaction between two different types of fluids means that pure wind tunnel testing is only partly relevant however a similar sort of research is done in a towing tank low speed oversize liquid testing air is not always the best test medium for studying small scale aerodynamic principles due to the speed of the air flow and airfoil movement a study of fruit fly wings designed to understand how the wings produce lift was performed using a large tank of mineral oil and wings 100 times larger than actual size in order to slow down the wing beats and make the vortices generated by the insect wings easier to see and
