The WT-3104 is a research quality, open loop,
benchtop wind tunnel for thermal characterization of
components, circuit boards and cooling devices such
as heat sinks, heat exchangers and cold plates. The
polynomial shape and internal flow management
system includes honeycombs and screens to break up
turbulence and provides uniform, homogeneous flow,
up to 4 m/s (800 ft/min) within the test section.
The WT-3104 has 18 ports which allows a variety
of probes, such as thermocouples, pitot tubes, and
temperature and velocity sensors, among others, to be
inserted throughout the test section. The wind tunnel
is made from aluminum and Plexiglas® and, provides
a clear view of the test section for flow visualization.
Rail guides are provided in the test section so the
board position can be adjusted. An access panel is
conveniently located for mounting boards which can be
adjusted in 3 different directions (i.e. the spacing from
the walls can be adjusted) using appropriate standoffs.
The WT-3104 weighs only 21 kg (47 lbs) making it
ideal for laboratory environments. Each WT-3104 fan
tray is equipped with three 24 Vdc fans, which can
be individually switched on and off, with an included
control box unit, to generate airflow. This control box
enables lowest possible air flow. Sensors to measure
the flow parameters are also available by Omega as
optional accessories.
