In January, we’ll launch a new long-term project aimed at designing and building a functional tabletop wind tunnel over the course of the school year.

Every Wednesday, you’ll meet with instructor Dan B. and work through the individual phases of the project step by step. You’ll start by designing the wind tunnel and creating models in CAD. Then you’ll move on to manufacturing individual parts using 3D printing and CNC machining, experiment with various materials, and assemble the mechanical structure.

The next part of the project will focus on electronics, soldering, and circuit wiring. You’ll install sensors in the wind tunnel and program a control system to operate it and collect data.

Once the wind tunnel is complete, it’s time for measurement and testing. You’ll observe how the structure behaves in practice, evaluate the measured data, and, based on the results, adjust individual components so that the entire system functions as well as possible.

At the end of the project, you’ll have created a functional tabletop wind tunnel, which we’ll continue to use for future student projects at SIT Port.

We’ll start on Wednesday, January 6, at 4:00 p.m. and continue every Wednesday.

The course fee is 2,700 CZK.

Upon registration, you’ll pay 2,600 CZK via bank transfer and the remaining 100 CZK in cash during the first class.
