Development of NIMT’s Facilities to Support Aerodynamic Research and Innovation: Past, Present, and Future
2025
Overview
The National Institute of Metrology Thailand (NIMT) has continuously expanded its facilities to support aerodynamic research and innovation, addressing both subsonic and supersonic testing needs. This development includes the establishment of a Force-Balanced Piston Gauge (FPG) for high-precision low differential pressure measurement, which is crucial for determining airspeed and pressure distribution in subsonic wind tunnel testing. Additionally, a portable Eiffel-type subsonic wind tunnel has been developed to facilitate the testing and calibration of pitot tube and hot-wire anemometers, ensuring accurate airflow measurements while providing flexibility for on-site applications. To enhance dynamic pressure calibration capabilities, NIMT has also developed a shock tube for calibrating pressure sensors under rapidly changing conditions and studying high-speed shock wave propagation in supersonic aerodynamic applications. Furthermore, NIMT has supported the development of a supersonic wind tunnel to strengthen Thailand’s research capabilities in supersonic flow and shock wave phenomena, enabling more advanced aerodynamic studies and aerospace applications. Looking ahead, NIMT plans to establish a space vacuum chamber, designed to serve as a test stand for aerospace mini thrusters, further expanding Thailand’s capabilities in space-related metrology and propulsion system research. These advancements contribute to strengthening Thailand’s metrological infrastructure, supporting cutting-edge research and development in aeronautics, aerospace, automotive engineering, and various industrial applications.
