• Measure wind speed, forces of aerodynamic effects
• Create test procedure for full size and scale testing
• Recommendations for future design of arborloos
PROBLEM STATEMENTThe primary objective of this project is to design a scale model and a full-size test stand that will help determine the wind resistance of various arborloo designs. The scale model test stand should replicate the forces experienced by a Class I hurricane, and the results should be easily comparable to the lower speed, full-size results.

DETAILED DESIGN REVIEW OBJECTIVES
SCALING LAWS
• Dimensional Analysis – allows for identification of key parameters
• Reynolds Number allows to determine model test velocity given a full size expected velocity
• Drag Coefficient allows us to find the expected full size drag force given the model measured drag force
REVISITING CFD ANALYSIS
Pressure Distribution mainly constant with fast drop offs at edgesAid in placement of pressure reading points
CFD Results showed a CD of approximately 1. Will assume a conservative 1.5.Dynamic Pressure at 95 mph wind expected to be ~1 kPa. Dynamic Pressure at 20 mph wind expected to be ~ 50Pa

• Use a load cell to directly find the drag force on the arborloo
• Load cell assembly also used as attachment point for arborloo
• Use pressure sensors to verify CFD results
• Pressure sensors methodology will allow for comparison to full
scale testing

PROCESS MAP
PRELIMINARY TEST PROCEDURE 10. Use Thermometer to measure room temperature. Room temperature must be between 60°F and 80 °F. 11. Load software and calibrate all sensors. See “Future MSDII Document on Guidelines for calibrating sensors”.
12. Close plexiglass walls and secure control surface. 13. Turn on Wind tunnel. Push start button and use arrows to increase or decrease wind speed. Read anemometer so that the desired wind speed is achieved. Wait 2-3 minutes for steady conditions to apply. 14. Start collecting data. 15. Let test run, recommended time for test duration is 5 minutes. Note: Do not run wind tunnel for longer than 20 minutes as this may cause overheating. 16. Stop collecting data. 17. Turn off Wind tunnel. Push stop button. 18. Repeat for different arborloo model.
Instructions: 1. Release pneumatic hold by turning the pressure knob counter-clockwise to the left position. 2. Lower the pistons by holding onto the red button. 3. Insert and align plywood base into wind tunnel test section. Handle plywood with care. 4. Raise the pistons by holding onto the green button. 5. Lock the pneumatic pistons by turning the pressure knob clockwise to the right position. 6. Attach load cell assembly to plywood base through the bottom. Fasten securely. 7. Attach load cell assembly to the “shelf” inserted close to the center of arborloo design. See “Future MSDII Document on Guidelines for creating an attachable arborloo”. 8. Attach barbs to face of arborloo facing the wind. Use specified barb size only. See “Future MSDII Document on Guidelines for placing Pressure Sensors”.
9. Attach and secure anemometer inside the wind tunnel away from the test arborloo.
LIMITATIONS OF DESIGN • Inability to compare small
scale results to large scale result for non-sharp edged objects i.e. cylindrical arborloos.
• Windtunnel max speeds of approximately only 120 mph.
• Design Includes– Large Scale Arborloo Sarah will provide
– Self standing – sand bags– Utilize Pressure Sensors methodology
– Netting environment for protection
– Locking mechanism for equipment
– Dynamic Pressure at 20 mph wind expected to be ~ 50Pa
– Drag Force ~ 123 N
