'Rolling road' moving ground plane. Part of the UK National Wind Tunnel Facility: MARHy wind Tunnel [41] Operational Diameter 5 m (16 ft) by 2.5 m (8 ft 2 in) Hypersonic/supersonic rarefied wind tunnel. No limit running time. Reynolds number /cm: 26.3 < Re < 7522;Mach number: 0.8 < Mach < 20 France
Portion of the Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel in 2014. Construction of this facility began in 1950-1951 and continued until 1955. Because no one wind tunnel could meet all the demands for additional research facilities simulating the entire range of aircraft and missile flight, NACA chose to build the Ames tunnel with three separate test sections drawing power from a common centralized power plant.
NASA Langley's Hypersonic Facilities Complex, 1969. A hypersonic wind tunnel is designed to generate a hypersonic flow field in the working section, thus simulating the typical flow features of this flow regime - including compression shocks and pronounced boundary layer effects, entropy layer and viscous interaction zones and most importantly high total temperatures of the flow.
While AEDC's primary location is in Tennessee, it also operates two geographically separated facilities—the Hypervelocity Wind Tunnel 9 in Maryland, and the National Full-Scale Aerodynamics Complex (NFAC), in California. AEDC's economic impact to the local area for fiscal year 2008 exceeded $728 million.
Cut-and-cover tunnel between Glendale Freeway and Angeles Crest Highway (both part of State Highway 2) in La Cañada Flintridge (Memorial Park covers the freeway) Two short tunnels (eastbound only) under SR 710 and Ventura Freeway (SR 134) in Pasadena; Griffith Park Tunnel, Vermont Canyon Road/Mount Hollywood Drive in Griffith Park, Los Angeles
Since then, China has continued to advance its science and technology and is now home to the world’s most powerful hypersonic wind tunnel, the JF-22, which can simulate the conditions in which a ...

A new analysis shows that building a California water tunnel would cost $20 billion. State officials say the project's benefits would far outweigh the costs.
