WIND TUNNEL TEST APPARATUS, AND METHOD, WITH DUMMY MAKING FUNCTION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a wind tunnel test apparatus with a dummy making function to make a dummy faithful to the original shape without allowing problems of leaving chips and the like to occur and thereby to enhance the accuracy of wind tunnel tests.SOLUTION: A wind tunnel test apparatus with a dummy making function is equipped with a wind tunnel 1; a table 3 arranged in the wind tunnel 1 to have a dummy mounted thereon; a traversing device 4 that is arranged in the wind tunnel 1, can move back and forth, left and right, and vertical directions X, Y and Z, and can shift the measuring sensor to any desired position on the table 3; and a three-dimensional printer 5 fitted to the traversing device 4 and capable of making a dummy 11 on the table 3. And, after the dummy 11 is made on the table 3 by the three-dimensional printer 5 fitted to the traversing device 4, the dummy 11 is subjected to a wind tunnel test.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
