The CWT-106 is a research quality wind tunnel designed for PCB and component level testing. It can be used for flow characterization, flow visualization and thermal resistance measurements. Air is drawn into the tunnel with variable DC fans mounted at the exhaust section of the tunnel. These fans are mounted on a tray and can be easily replaced with another tray to accommodate larger or smaller fans.
An internal flow management system, with honeycombs and screens, breaks up turbulence and provides uniform and homogeneous flow in the test section.
The wind tunnel can be operated vertically or horizontally and features a see-through test section for ease of flow visualization.
The flexibility of the movable plate and housing provides the users with a high degree of latitude to design and build their own setup to suit their needs.
