Wind Tunnel with VPS & Stinger Mount by Pitsco Education

Elevate your tech and science classes with this adjustable-speed, whisper-quiet wind tunnel. No louder than a typical room fan, it requires no hearing protection. Paired with the Vehicle Platform Sensor (VPS) and Stinger Mount Sensor, it can measure forces on diverse objects like dragsters, airfoils, rockets, and geometric shapes. Crafted for quality, it features a low-restriction flow straightener and a 6:1 compression ratio intake bell, ensuring smooth, laminar airflow for consistent results. The spacious testing chamber accommodates various objects, yet the unit remains compact enough to sit on a six-foot table. Side and top polycarbonate window panels allow ample light and a clear view. The wind tunnel's handheld control unit lets you adjust air speed (up to 40 mph), and the included manometer displays the actual speed. As air moves over an object, the control unit's LCD panel shows the force magnitude.
