Aerodynamic Trainer Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14086

This experimental platform, utilizing appropriate accessories, is designed for comprehensive instruction across two fundamental domains of fluid mechanics: flow around bodies (external flow) and steady incompressible flow (internal flow). The exercises allow for the empirical determination of key aerodynamic forces and flow characteristics, alongside the validation of fundamental hydraulic laws like Bernoulli’s principle. A central focus is the proficiency in using standard instrumentation, specifically the Pitot tube and Pitot static tube, for accurate velocity measurement. Advanced studies include detailed analysis of the boundary layer on flat plates, demonstration of the Coanda effect, and visualization of streamlines.
