Wind tunnel for the study of wind erosion

摘要

Wind tunnel for the study of wind erosion, characterized by being lightweight and foldable, where a fan generates an air stream, which enters a scrollable "tubular" structure. The structure is telescopic. It is divided into three modules and are positioned hinges, which allow it into a fully folded cube reduced dimensions. To complete the telescopic assembly, it has designed a system that allows the walls accommodate this structure, using skids sliding on a rail # The collection and analysis of samples is carried out with two sensors. # 1. A laser-scan, which allows the generation of three-dimensional maps of soil before and after being eroded. # 2. A machine vision camera, which captures images of the particles fixed in a series of plates with adhesive, placed at the end of the device.
