Measuring Bicycle Air Resistance with the Aero Optim Wind Tunnel
Aero Optim
Measure air resistance with the Aero Optim to find the bicycle rig form that best works for you, or use it to aid in product development.
**Aero Optim Series** ★For more details, please visit our website★ https://japanfudo.com/product/aerooptim-cell.html The Aero Optim series is a modular wind tunnel unit. Initially developed with the concept of making wind tunnel experiments more accessible to cycling enthusiasts, it is now being utilized for a wide range of applications not limited to bicycles. The Aero Optim is a modular wind tunnel unit. It consolidates all functions of a wind tunnel (fan, diffusion, uniformity, rectification) into a 700mm x 700mm unit that can be combined to create the desired flow area. In contrast to the traditional image of wind tunnels as large, high-cost, and high-maintenance test devices, this is a compact, low-cost, and low-maintenance alternative solution. **[Measurement Platforms]** For bicycles, competitive wheelchairs, 6-axis measurement platforms, etc.
