But the process of setting up, measuring, and\nvalidating these flow profiles for aerodynamic tests can be time-consuming and cumbersome. In this study, a novel and\nintuitive approach is presented, making this process less tedious.",[53,57,58],{},"An optically tracked 5-hole probe was developed to collect and process three-dimensional flow data in real-time. The\nflow data is used in a feedback loop to precisely control each and every fan of the Windshaper to generate the desired\nflow profile in the test area. A 3D graphical interface allows users to set-up the flow easily and visualize how the\ngenerated flow profile might deviate from the setpoint in every area of the test section.",[53,60,61],{},"The present study is divided in two parts. First, we evaluated the accuracy and frequency response of the probe’s flow\nmeasurement capabilities. Then, we tested the effectiveness of the flow control setup with a series of wind profiles.\nThe results obtained demonstrate that this approach can significantly reduce the time and effort required to generate\nand control complex flows for aerodynamic testing.",[53,63,64],{},"Specifically, our tests showed that the real-time flow control method allowed to generate the desired flow profile in\nthe test area with sufficient precision and with a short setup time. The 3D graphical interface provides an intuitive\nand easy-to-use platform for setting up the flow and visualizing any deviations from the setpoint. Finally, the probe’s\nperformance is up to industry standards and exceeds the requirements for precise flow control of a Windshaper.\nOverall, our results suggest that this novel method provides an innovative and effective solution for generating and\ncontrolling complex aerodynamic flows, with potential applications in a range of industries including aerospace,\nautomotive engineering, and wind energy.",[48,66,68],{"id":67},"full-article","Full Article",[53,70,71,72],{},"Link to the full article as PDF:\n",[73,74,78],"a",{"download":75,"href":76,"target":77},"WindShape-WindMaster-Scitech-2021.pdf","/articles/2024-Scitech-windmaster.pdf","_blank","Download",[80,81,82,83],"div",{},"\n    ",[84,85],"embed",{"src":76,"width":86,"height":87},"100%","500px",{"title":89,"searchDepth":90,"depth":90,"links":91},"",2,[92,93],{"id":50,"depth":90,"text":51},{"id":67,"depth":90,"text":68},"2024-01-05","Automated control of complex aerodynamic flows generated by Windshaper fan arrays","md",{"src":98,"width":99,"height":100},"/img/papers-header/2024-Scitech-windmaster.png",1000,500,{},true,"/resources/papers/windmaster-2024",{"title":5,"description":95},"resources/papers/windmaster-2024","tnlMeSXx3yENFwRvmBe9S6Xc1mK-QejOp7zVLyE_rXM",1774344909558]
