Anechoic Wind Tunnel
As airline travel peaks for the Thanksgiving
holiday, a newly completed wind tunnel at the University of Florida may
help reduce the noise of commercial airplanes as they fly over homes
and neighborhoods.
The tunnel is one of only a handful in the country and currently the largest at a university
designed specifically to reduce noise from planes passing overhead and
landing. Engineers will use the $400,000 tunnel to learn how to reduce
the noise caused by the flow of air over wings, flaps and landing gear
– the primary sources of the annoying sound that reaches people on the
ground when planes are landing.
