#windtunnel — Public Fediverse posts

@wavesculptor @noah I _love_ fuid sims! Brings back good ol' dear memories to this project of mine:

NASA Space Shuttle 36% wind tunnel model tested in the National Full-Scale Aerodynamics Complex at Ames Research Center (Home to the largest wind tunnel in the world), Moffett Field, now a gate guard #NASA #NASAAmes #Moffett #SpaceShuttle #WindTunnel #space #testing

For their high school project in #aerodynamics Mathias and Viktor wanted to know if a car with spoiler would have less drag than one without. We were happy to let them test this on our #windtunnel at the #RoyalMilitaryAcademy.

It was a fun day in the lab!

Man I love this setup but I’m seriously pondering a downgrade to a quicksilver just to escape fan noise (and that’s after a full fan replacement and fresh thermal goup).

All the right questions only very few people would really ask (but more should care) in the gravel performance realm. And a wind tunnel to get the answers. Dylan's latest video on his Unbound Setup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3yspNTvVPo

First 8way training of the year complete! Fun to get back in the wind tunnel again and relearn the 8way randoms and blocks. #skydiving #windTunnel #8way

Had a great time at ParacleteXP for indoor nationals. Well run and a lot of fun! #skydiving #windTunnel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4s0o_rnSlg

The have a live feed of the 2023 Indoor Skydiving Nationals (I’m competing in the advanced class as part of Paragon)😄 #skydiving #windTunnel https://livestream.com/paracletexp/events/10142899

Celebrated my son’s birthday at the wind tunnel with 9 of his friends 😄 #windTunnel #iFlySFBay #LEGO

Lots of fun at the tunnel camp! We learned how to enter the tunnel together as a 4way team from the door (as opposed to going in one after another). Going to be useful for indoor nationals in a month 😄 #skydiving #windTunnel #4way

Winter of travel continues. This weekend trip is to NC for some wind tunnel training! It’s been a few years since I’ve been to the big tunnel at ParacleteXP, definitely looking forward to two days of training with SDC Rhythm XP coaching 😄 #skydiving #windTunnel

This woman has been playing with the fans, windtunnels and air exits from the Paris' subway for the last 20 years.
She patiently ties plastic bands around the grids, and plays with the air.
Everybody knows her in these neighborhoods.
