Arts et Métiers intends to make the wind tunnel of the DynFluid laboratory, located on the Paris campus, the academic leader in aerodynamics within five years. An ambition that involves renovating the premises, developing cutting-edge metrology means and opening up to new areas of research.

Michaël Pereira was appointed head of the aerodynamic site of the Dynfluid laboratory - Campus Arts et Métiers de Paris last January. This young 27-year-old physicist's mission is to anchor equipment built in 1952 in Industry 4.0. A new dynamic that involves strengthening research in the fields of energy transition and transport, for which the skills of the wind tunnel are recognized, while developing metrology resources and opening up to other themes such as drones and sports physics.

The complementarity of skills (theoretical, numerical and experimental) brought together around the wind tunnel enables the DynFluid laboratory to intervene throughout the research and innovation chain, and to respond to current industrial challenges. The wind tunnel is mobilized for work on cars, aviation, high-rise buildings, wind turbines, solar collectors, etc. It works in close collaboration with manufacturers such as PSA, Renault, Dassault, and even Safran.

The only closed-circuit wind tunnel of this size in Paris

The wind tunnel at the Paris Arts et Métiers campus is a closed wind tunnel, equipped with a fan with a diameter of 3 meters, driven by a variator and a 120 kW motor. The flow in the main test vein can reach 40 meters per second. "We are rich in knowledge and know-how, which gives us an image of excellence in the industrial world and the scientific community," says Michaël Pereira.

The wind tunnel is attached to the ETE team of DynFluid, a joint Arts and Crafts / National Conservatory of Arts and Crafts laboratory. He conducts research ranging from hydrodynamics, to aerodynamics and acoustics, with applications in many sectors (aeronautics, aerospace, automotive, naval, construction, sport, health, turbomachine, etc.) . He develops original numerical methods to simulate flows (most often in compressible conditions) and aeroacoustic phenomena, or to analyze their instabilities, and implements these methods within the framework of national or international research programs. The laboratory's work contributes to improving the performance of airplanes, rockets, land vehicles and industrial installations, with the aim of preserving the environment by reducing energy consumption or greenhouse gas emissions and reduction of noise pollution.

In 2022, the aerodynamic wind tunnel will celebrate its 70th anniversary. It has a unique collection of models of wind turbines, airplanes and even cars (including that of the original Citroën DS). "I am sensitive to this story and I would like us to join in the continuity of this innovation process by participating in the new industrial revolution", adds Michaël Pereira.
