8x6-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel and 9x15-Foot Low-Speed Wind Tunnel

(CD-12032-09): This drawing shows the facility’s current arrangement with two test sections. The seven numbered doors open and close to change the 8 x 6 SWT from closed to open mode and isolate the 9 x 15 LSWT when the 8 x 6 SWT is running in open mode. The three small figures of people standing next to the drive motors provide a sense of the tunnel’s size.
