What is the Wind Tunnel?

Hendrick's in-house chassis engineering department
It is literally a tunnel with large fans where teams send race cars to get measurements. The fans generate wind and hit the car from all different angles. Teams take their cars to the wind tunnel to figure out how well air is flowing over the car. They can stop the wind and make changes, then compare the results to find the best aerodynamic shape. Knowing that it is impossible to get all of your race cars to the wind tunnel, many teams focus on superspeedway cars versus a road course car. See similar questions...

What measurement do you get from the wind tunnel?

Hendrick's in-house chassis engineering department
a car moves through the air, the air causes different types of pressure on the surface of the body. These pressures are measurements you get from the wind tunnel. Downforce is another type of air pressure. When the downforce on top of the car is greater than the air pressure on the bottom of the car, you have downforce. This pushes the car onto the track, providing more grip and keeps it from losing traction at high speeds and in the corners. See similar questions...

Why are skydivers often dissatisfied with Vertical Wind Tunnels ?

Frequently Asked Questions
Many Vertical Wind Tunnel designs currently in use do not provide airspeeds high enough to satisfy skydivers. Also, poor jet uniformity makes some Vertical Wind Tunnels more difficult to fly in, and jet diameters are usually not wide enough for a four-way team. Even 2-way is difficult for experienced skydivers in most designs. See similar questions...
