A standard catalogue model: the drawing, control package and finish are fixed, which is what keeps the price and the lead time predictable. Size, colour and interface language can be adapted without a new design cycle.
The exhibit consists of mechanical models and angle adjustment devices for five common airfoils: symmetrical airfoil, biconvex airfoil, plano convex airfoil, concave convex airfoil, and S-shaped airfoil, as well as a hot air blower and schlieren photography equipment, and a screen. Aiming to study the aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils through mechanical interaction, the specific manifestation is achieved through schlieren photography technology (a photography technique that uses the disturbance of airflow on light waves to transform the changes in airflow that cannot be seen by the naked eye into visible images), observing the airflow shape formed by the airflow passing over wings of different shapes and angles under the action of wind, and forming an experimental analysis of the relationship between wings and air based on the visualization of the airflow field. The basic conclusion is that "wings must have lift, but they must have angles of attack or curvature. However, each coefficient has the most suitable range, and exceeding the range will result in negative effects." This guides visitors to feel the flow field characteristics of the air flow on the surface of the aircraft during flight. Enhance the public's scientific literacy and increase.
The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.
The wing is one of the important components of an aircraft, and the different wing profiles and angles of attack can affect the airflow state when the aircraft moves forward, thereby affecting lift. Common basic airfoils include flat convex, concave convex, double convex, symmetrical, and S-shaped airfoils. Different airfoil designs can provide different aerodynamic characteristics and performance for aircraft. Therefore, when designing an aircraft, it is necessary to select suitable airfoils based on specific usage requirements and flight characteristics.
Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
