Acoustically optimised Large Wind Tunnel
The acoustically optimised large scale wind tunnel with its specific design is particularly apt for aero-acoustic research & development projects. It also allows for testing on comparatively large components and realistic models. Calibration and function tests of wind measurement sensors at high flow velocities are also possible, just as the use for R&D projects for the industry as well as for scientific institutions.
