DESIGNING WIND TUNNELS

MATERIALS REQUIRED
Tunnel: Smoke stream:
Watch the video and draw a diagram.
DIAGRAM:
PREDICTION OF TESTED ITEMS: (what will the smoke
trails look like?)

The smoke trail will approach the craft in a straight

line. Upon hitting the jet it will deflect along the
outside of the craft, along the wing and towards the
back of the plane. The paths of the smoke will cross
and mix at the edge of the wing. The smoke will curl
back in at the tail and dissipate (separate so that the
smoke trails disappear).
