Hypersonic wind tunnel

Japanese: 極超音速風胴 - きょくちょうおんそくふうどう
Hypersonic wind tunnel


[kinds]
Wind tunnels are classified into various categories based on their structure, performance, and purpose. First, they are classified according to the Mach number (the speed of the airflow divided by the speed of sound in that gas) M into low-speed wind tunnels ( M 0.5 or less), high-speed subsonic wind tunnels ( M 0.5-0.8), transonic wind tunnels ( M 0.8-1.2), supersonic wind tunnels ( M 1.2-5), and hypersonic wind tunnels ( M 5 or more). In low-speed wind tunnels and high-speed subsonic wind tunnels, the airflow is created by continuously operating a blower, but in wind tunnels for supersonic speeds and above, the airflow is often created by releasing pressurized air filled in an air tank. …
