It is used in air flow characterization and flow visualization, thermal resistance measurements and generation of P-Q curves. The large test section (24&#8243; x 2&#8243;\u009d x 7&#8243;) is designed to accommodate multiple PCBs, as seen in a typical ATCA chassis. The wind tunnel can also be used to characterize different heat sink sizes for natural and forced convection cooling. Additionally, multiple heat sinks can be tested side by side to determine their thermal performance in the same environment.<\/p>\n<p>The following video is a brief demonstration and walk through of the CWT-107 Open Loop Wind Tunnel:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Open Loop Wind Tunnels\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/04QrPEo7alA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>To learn more about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qats.com\/Products\/Wind-Tunnels\/Open-Loop-Wind-Tunnels\/CWT-107\">CWT-107<\/a> and how ATS products can be utilized in COTS applications, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qats.com\">www.qats.com<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Want to keep up to date on ATS products, services, free engineering webinars and our monthly Qpeda Thermal eMagazine? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qats.com\/newuser.aspx\">Subscribe to ATS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ATS has continued to expand in the COTS industry because of its expertise in resolving thermal challenges through its consulting services, cooling solutions, and thermal test instruments.
