Boundary Layer Transition Tunnel (CW-7) This facility conducts experiments to determine the important mechanisms influencing the laminar-turbulent transition process and heat transfer in high-disturbance environments such as in gas turbine engines. The facility is a low-speed, closed-loop, temperature-controlled wind tunnel; no central services are required. The main components of the tunnel include a blower driven […]
