Wind tunnel with a model arranged therein, particularly a model of an aircraft, for acquiring and evaluating a plurality of measuring data, as well as method
First Claim
1. A wind tunnel with a model of an aircraft arranged therein for acquiring and evaluating a plurality of measuring data, the wind tunnel comprising:
- at least one computer unit; and
at least one visual display terminal; and
at least one sensor for acquiring the measuring data,wherein the plurality of measuring data of the wind tunnel, comprises measuring data on flow and/or pressure conditions on the model and/or in the region of the model, wherein the measuring data is determinable by the at least one sensor, is processable in real time and with consideration of geometrical data of the model by the at least one computer unit during an ongoing wind tunnel measurement and is visualizable on the at least one visual display terminal during a wind tunnel measurement, andwherein the position in space of at least one sensor is variable by at least one positioning device in dependence on the measuring data and under the control of the computer unit.

Abstract
A wind tunnel with a model arranged therein, particularly a model of an aircraft, for acquiring and evaluating a plurality of measuring data, wherein the wind tunnel comprises at least one computer unit and at least one visual display terminal particularly at least one monitor, as well as at least one sensor for acquiring the measuring data. A plurality of measuring data of the wind tunnel, particularly measuring data on flow and/or pressure conditions on the model and/or in the region of the model, which data are determinable by the at least one sensor, can be processed in real time and with consideration of geometrical data of the model by the at least one computer unit and visualized on the at least one visual display terminal during a wind tunnel measurement.
