Hi-Tech

Flugkammer

Wir haben eine Reihe von fortschrittlichen Lösungen implementiert, um einen komfortablen und sicheren Flug zu ermöglichen.

Der "Boden" der Flugkammer besteht aus einem Sicherheitsnetz mit regulierbaren Befestigungen, die auch am Rand des Netzes die Stürze abfedern.
Die perfekt runde Glaskammer gewährleistet eine gleichmäßigen Luftströmung ohne Turbulenzen, im Gegensatz zu polygonalen Kammern, die luftstromreduzierende Ecken haben.
Dickes Glas mit speziellen lärmabsorbierenden Schichten ermöglicht, die Flüge aus nächster Nähe ohne Ohrstöpsel zu beobachten und mit normaler Lautstärke zu sprechen.

Gesamthöhe	24 m
Glashöhe	8 m
Minimaler Durchmesser	4,5 m

Unsere technischen und ingenieurtechnischen Fähigkeiten ermöglichen es uns, jeden Windkanal innerhalb dieser Spezifikationen nach Ihren Anforderungen zu entwerfen und zu realisieren.

Axialventilatoren

Just like every exceptional sailboat is built around perfect streamlined shape wind tunnel’s efficiency relies upon honed aerodynamic lines to guide unobstructed airflow from the motors to the flight chamber and back. For this simple yet challenging task we utilised hi-end technology proven by decades of racing speedboat design and construction.

Our FRP Composite Air Ducts made with highest degree of precision ensure smooth transitions between each part of the tunnel. Unlike metal and concrete FRP air ducts:

Allow for more precisely shaped form and eliminate near wall turbulence - the primary cause of noise & vibration emissions, bringing wind tunnels to more demanding locations (e.g. shopping centres, or in proximity residential areas).
Have sandwich structure absorbing sound waves rather than transmitting them down the loop and resulting in uncontrolled resonance peaks common for conventional air ducts, making flying pleasant and safe for children and staff.
Improve overall aerodynamic design, therefore energy efficiency of the tunnel, significantly reducing operating costs and cooling expenses.

Wendeflügel

Turning vanes are the cornerstone of wind tunnel efficiency. Classic NASA research shows that up to 30% of energy losses in a tunnel may appear due to poor turning vane design, insufficient frequency within vanes assembly and inappropriate mounting. Most importantly turning vanes design may drastically affect the airflow quality both inducing and reducing the turbulence.

TunnelTech turning vanes are made from aviation grade extruded aluminium and calibrated with precision of microns. Unique X-large profile of our own design provides efficient direction change with virtually no disturbance to the airflow while reduced spacing in turning vanes acts honeycomb alike straightening the slightest airstream differences.

Klimakontrolle

Belüftung

Our wind tunnels are equipped with outright ventilation that provides effective air exchange and airflow cooling without additional costs associated with HVAC appliance. Ventilation louvers replace up to 20% of circulating airflow volume with fresh air efficiently cooling the system in outside temperatures below 30C° leading to total energy consumption reduced by up to 30%.

Für heiße Klimazonen und zur Reduzierung des Lärmpegels empfehlen wir den Einbau eines aktiven Kühlsystems.

Wind tunnel with cooling system can be operated in any extreme climates and virtually inaudible from the outside making it possible for the facility to be located in close proximity to residential areas or any others where outside noise emissions are undesirable.

Aktives Kühlsystem

TunnelTech cooling system relies on uniform airflow cooling via turning vanes assembly. Unlike other wind tunnel technologies in our tunnels cooling fluid is supplied from centralised HVAC systems directly in to the hollow turning vanes acting as heat exchangers. This approach eliminates turbulence occurring if cooled air is injected in the airflow with conventional style systems.

Zusätzliche Optionen

BASE-Jumping-Kammer

Located at the top of a wind tunnel so-called BASE-chamber is an essential tool for professional skydiving and military training, technically it is another entrance to the flight chamber making it possible to practice controlled aircraft exit. Due to 2x windspeed reduction at the door TunnelTech's BASE-chamber is the only one suitable for training with stabilising parachute significantly improving safety of such training. On demand, base chamber may be decorated with aircraft interior and equipped with comprehensive set of automations and safety systems.

Wabenstruktur

Honecomb is a cellular metallic structure which straightens the smallest irregularities in the flow creating virtually turbulent-free stream of air. This feature replicates highest uniformity of the airflow similar to real skydive. For implementation in our tunnels we utilise highest quality aviation-grade honeycombs made in Japan.

Simulator für schlechtes Wetter

For military purpose and extensive psychological training TunnelTech's wind tunnels may be equipped with severe weather simulation system, introducing heavy rain, low visibility, humidity and lightning within the flight chamber. In combination with advanced cooling system and aircraft hull installed at the BASE-chamber these systems will prepare military personnel to the worst imaginable combat situations.
