\"dav\"<\/a>As a part of an Erasmus+ student exchange program, Itziar Bueno Tintor\u00e9, undergraduate student of Aerospace Engineering from School of Industrial, Aerospace and Audiovisual Engineering of Terrassa, Polytechnic University of Catalonia, successfully accomplished the research and defended Bachelor Thesis at Department of Aeronautics, Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences. Student Itziar Bueno Tintor\u00e9 had an assignment to design and build a force balance for a small low speed wind tunnel AT-1 installed in Laboratory of Aerodynamics at Campus Borongaj. The purpose of building the force balance is to\u00a0provide an accessible tool to do measurements in the Faculty\u2019s wind tunnel, now used mostly for demonstration purposes.\u00a0The design is intended to be inexpensive and understandable for students and it includes the base, the structure of the balance, and the means to transmit the forces to the sensors, along with the data acquisition methodology to process the results. The latter is made possible by using three load cells: two to measure lift and pitching moment, and another one to measure drag. Data processing is performed by an Arduino, which also enables a quick and easy calibration and tare process. The electronics and the accompanying code have been tested, while the structure design is left ready to be built. This work also includes a User\u2019s manual of the force balance. The thesis titled \u201cDESIGN OF A THREE-AXIS WIND TUNNEL FORCE BALANCE<\/a>\u201d was written under mentorship of Karolina Kraj\u010dek Nikoli\u0107.\u00a0The evaluation committee members, Tomislav Radi\u0161i\u0107, Davor Franjkovi\u0107 and Karolina Kraj\u010dek Nikoli\u0107, evaluated\u00a0 the thesis and defense with highest grade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
