Wind tunnel testing campaign
A series of wind tunnel tests have been carried out today to test the propellers for our new project: Nyx. The tests were mainly carried out by the Control and Propulsion Department with the aim of testing the efficiency and thrust at different speeds for different propeller models in order to select the most suitable and powerful one for Nyx.
It is also worth mentioning the work done in the pre-test phase, which was crucial in setting up the experiment and validating the data acquisition system.
A huge thank you goes to the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology for supporting our project with the facilities and expertise provided on the day.
