Wind tunnel research

Unique research facility

Peutz is the only independent consultant in Europe with its own wind tunnel. Using scale models, the following problems can be assessed in the wind tunnel:

• Wind environment
• Wind pressures
• Dispersions of substances

Due to the wind tunnel facility, we can design and optimize spatial plans for comfort and safety. Possible problems are identified at an early stage. Together we create a plan of action to achieve suitable solutions.

Our wind tunnel is equipped with measurements systems which make it possible to carry out specific aero - and hydrodynamic research for the offshore.
