SESSION 6 - Hi-Capacity Balances for future wind tunnel testing
Triumph
"The High Capacity Force Balance continues to prove itself as a high performance balance that is capable of maintaining the accuracy across the full load envelope. The ability to redefine the allowable loads based on test requirements enable a single balance to fill the requirements that would usually take multiple balances to meet.
The Hi-Capacity Force Balance greatly increases the load capacity and improves the state of the art performance.
The Transition of the Hi-Cap balance from concept, development to the current production status is complete. The balances have reached full maturity of design in just a few years; Since 2005 we have completed nearly a dozen balances to a wide range of customers, including government and industry. Each of the balances has successfully met the stated performance goals. The reports from wind tunnel testing on the balances are very positive. We have great confidence in the balances as they have been developed on a foundation of successful predecessors. The high capacity design is now a proven dependable balance that is ideal for meeting the demanding wind tunnel test requirements of today and the future. The presentation will cover design, fabrication and calibration results from a number of the various sizes of balances that have been completed over the previous 5 years. We will also discuss the future direct of balance development for the aerospace industry".
