The WT-3067 is a research-quality
closed loop wind tunnel that
provides a convenient, accurate
system for thermally characterizing
PCBs and individual components at
controlled temperatures from
ambient to 85°C (185ºF).
The WT-3067 wind tunnel produces
air flows up to 7 m/s (1378 ft/min).
With customization, it can generate
flows up to 50 m/s (10,000 ft/min)
using orifice plates (available
custom). The clear polycarbonate
test section lets the user view the
test specimen and allows for
flow visualization.
Unlike open loop wind tunnels, the
WT-3067 recirculates internal air.
This allows the system heater to
rapidly warm the air to a specific
temperature. The testing of boards
and components in hot air is a
requirement in some NEBS and
other standards. The precise
controls and temperature range of
the WT-3067 wind tunnel allow its
use for testing heat sink
performance and for calibrating air
and temperature sensors.
The complete wind tunnel fits on
most lab benches and is powered
from standard AC outlets. It has a
smaller footprint than traditional,
closed loop wind tunnels or
environmental test chambers.
The WT-3067 is provided with a
controller for controlling the flow and
temperature in the wind tunnel. The
controller comes with a graphical
user interface to automate the wind
tunnel operation.
The WT-3067 test section can be
accessed from the top door for
mounting and repositioning of
boards, components and sensors.
Internal rail guides provide an easy
mechanism to install test specimens
of different sizes (e.g. PCB,
heat sink).
Instrument ports (6) are provided in
the side walls of the test section for
Wind tunnel controller
(included). Shown smaller
than actual size.

measure the flow parameters are
also available from Omega.
