[@EricMuller]

Good luck at quali in 15 minutes

[@grendelum]

@Sauber F1 Team - *_never_* be afraid of getting _”too technical”_ with *F1* fans... we’re *_starved_* of technical info on the sport and while we may all not be engineers, many of us work in some technical field and *_love_* to learn stuff like this !!! This video is amazing and I hope to see more like it !!!

[@ShirishPotu]

I probably enjoyed this more than the Cut Section Videos. Thank you so much Mr. Toet, the team behind this video and indeed everyone at Sauber who pushed for making this stuff open for the public. I've learnt more from this video than I ever have during all the surfing hours on F1 Aerodynamics. Thanks so much once again Sauber!

[@sauberf1team]

Wowed by the great feedback, Shirish Potu, thank you! Make sure to watch all of our TECH BITES videos, too (see TECH BITES playlists). Some gems in there, too!

[@ShirishPotu]

Sauber F1 Team I've watched them all ;)

[@grendelum]

26:23 _”...testing at 80 meters per second...”_ that’s *178.9549 mph !!!* That is an *_astounding_* speed for the rolling road to move... seriously incredible engineering kit for it to move at that speed and remain a stable platform for testing !!

[@formulaferocine7736]

300 kph damn.... i guess that's what it takes to make these f1 cars what they are

[@pritiacharya9774]

Thank you Sauber for sharing this valuable information!! Amazing video and very well explained.

[@Enskakuski]

Magnificent video! Almost hard to believe that this knowledge is public and free. I suppose that tells something about this technology: You really, really need to know what you're doing to do wind tunnel testing - if you don't, a 44 minute crash course by an expert, isn't even going to get you started.

[@sauberf1team]

+Joni-Pekka Luomala There's a reason why the video is called How Wind Tunnels Work rather than How To Work A Wind Tunnel 😉 Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 👍

Thanks Sauber! I shall be using this information in my assignment, of course you guys get credit for the information.

[@roadman7375]

I previously watched the 8 Part series but it is brilliant to see it altogether. This should also be a FIA rule that these type of documentaries are produced, secrets can still be kept however information can still be produced in a documentary like these. I know Willem was born in the Netherlands but since he grew up in Australia we will claim him ;).

[@marcandrecote6900]

Awesome insight into the wind tunnel!

[@sauberf1team]

Perfect! Thanks for watching and for the positive feedback!

[@colderwar]

The mental image of Sauber engineers floating around on surface tables inside the tunnel during their lunch breaks is priceless :-)))))

[@marcuscesar1343]

I got a bit confused, before the radiator you stop the swirl or is after the air passess trough the radiaor that it is not longer sppining at macroscopic scale?

[@willemtoet_yt]

Swill is stopped immediately after the fan. The radiator then further reduces any that remains.

[@pranjal_ghosh]

A very informative video.....was greatly impressed by the knowledge of the man and the way he explained the working of the Wind Tunnel.

[@bengtsneitz813]

Awsome presentation, Thanks.

[@pinkdispatcher]

I just found these. Extraordinary. Thank you so much for sharing this amount of insight!

[@sauberf1team]

It took you a while ;-) Also check out our Tech Bites playlist!

[@pinkdispatcher]

Sauber F1 Team Wow, I didn't really expect a response this quickly. Thanks. On the subject of who built the first wind tunnel, NASA seems to think that the Wright Brothers had one in 1901 (wright.nasa.gov/airplane/tunnel.html) which would have been before Eiffels 1905/1906 efforts, and wikipedia (I know, I know ...) says Wenham built one in 1871.

[@sauberf1team]

Great stuff, thanks for the info! The important thing is that someone had the idea and whoever did would definitely be majorly impressed by today's facilities ;-)

[@truthsayer81]

[@matthewprawl6221]

Fantastic video

[@sauberf1team]

Thanks, *****! Don't miss the infographic! Link in the video description.

[@AB-80X]

What a nice video. Thank you. Very informative. It also shows what FIA is doing to F1, not to mention what they do to the development of normal cars - in a negative way. The top teams should move out, and start their own series, so there's a motorsport series that is all about the pinnacle of performance and technology.

[@galichax999]

What it supprise me the most is all the complexity of the flor(belt) and the transfert of 60% model to the 100% model ,i taught it was simple as just find the difference "lets say 500pd =100% and x=60% witch it'll be 500time60divided by 100 witch is 300pd and the vice versa so as the wind speed. (sorry for my words spelling ,i'm french from Montreal)

[@filippocoppo]

I really loved this docu

[@nucspartan321]

Great video

[@parthbhavsar9991]

really helpful for my fluid dynamics class, thanks

[@TrackTimeAudio]

Hey Sauber F1 Team, this video series is amazing. I do have a request for a future topic. In car production, there is typically a team of engineers called Noise, Vibration, and Harshness engineers, whose job is to evaluate the sonic and mechanical characteristics of the car, for an aesthetic and also ergonomic purpose. I would guess that for F1, the aesthetics aren't really a consideration. That being said, does Sauber have a team of NVH specialists, and what (and how) do they contribute to the car? Do they focus on longevity/reliability, or do they bring driver aesthetics into consideration? Are they also responsible for acoustic systems like the radio and driver feedback tones? And lastly, do acoustic tests show up in other, possibly "unexpected" places (like the wind tunnel)? Thanks! -TTA

[@sauberf1team]

Thanks for the great feedback, TrackTimeAudio! You're right, noise (or acoustics) isn't a focus of our engineers work. We do care about vibrations, of course, and we do respective calculations/simulation as well as tests on our 7-poste rig. Regarding (driver) communication we use respective radio systems provided by Riedel Communications. The biggest issue there is the placement of the drivers' mic (usually in a pocket on the Nomex balaclava).

[@lazaglider]

It is absolutely criminal that Mr Toet is not presently working in F1.

[@Michael-dx8qz]

Thanks for this! Really interesting as a person studying fluid mechanics!

[@Dobriden_dobriden]

[@groomlake51]

More vids like this might save the sport I think I have watched it 10 times now

[@deangelobailey5863]

19:47 I thought they used a real car until this scene lol

[@ShirishPotu]

There is one thing I would like to ask though, - What about the effects of Tire Graining on the windflow? Does that play an important role or could it just be ignored? - Similarly, the Steel Belt is a very smooth one, but the ground isn't. Does that decrease the accuracy of measurements too?

[@sauberf1team]

The upper side of the steel belt is coated with a rather rough material, Shirish Potu. The wind tunnel tyres don't react like normal race tyres (wear, graining, etc.). If they did, they couldn't do the mileage described by Willem in the video. But, indeed, it may have negative effects on the track if a car picks up too much rubber in certain critical areas.

[@sauberf1team]

Shirish Potu Willem adds - the belt coating we use is synthetic and bonded to the steel belt. It does eventually wear out and become smooth under the tyres. We get tarmac roughness data from Pirelli and use this to help us characterise the roughness we target for the belt coating in the wind tunnel (for our 60% model). The tyres run on the model actually are a bit too smooth aerodynamically speaking but we have ways of experimenting with surface roughness and then apply a small correction to allow for it (really sorry but I am not willing to say exactly what we do!). Anyway another excellent question!

[@BasilRoosli]

The whole time he's explaining the air bearings I'm just thinking about air hockey tables

[@watsonlaboratories262]

what an amazing video

[@tytvan3737]

Looks like one of your competitors had watched your video... and downvoted it for lack of trade secrets ;-) In all seriousness, a fantastic look into the wind tunnel technology and implications of the design on performance. I suppose the limits imposed are there to reduce cost, in order to even out the playing field for the smaller, worse funded teams? Can you expand on the reasons why such restrictions are put in place by the FIA,, please?

[@sauberf1team]

tytvan Thanks a lot for watching and commenting! Correct, the restrictions are meant to reduce costs and to level the playing field.

[@sarunasvilkas6281]

Great video! Better than 99% of today's Discovery channel broadcast. One question: how teams are controlled they keep all test regulations? Who would know if you put a 1:1 scale model in you own wind tunnel?

[@sauberf1team]

CCTV and detailed reporting to the FIA.

[@keithbogus989]

Willem just touched upon it in his great explanation but I was wondering how corning is achieved in the tunnel. Thanks again fro the great videos.

[@atislav]

Why isn't the wind tunnel rounded instead of turning vanes in the 90 degrees corners? Because of costs or 90 degrees corners are actually more effective, or because of better wind distribution in the tunnel?

[@sauberf1team]

atislav Willem says - To turn the air around the tunnel it is actually better (takes less energy) to use “90” degree corners but with turning vanes. The turning vanes make the air turn evenly because they are spaced quite close together. With a curved tube the air speed would not be so even across the working section. Lots of designs have been tried and tested by the aircraft and aerospace industries both before and after F1 teams started to develop wind tunnels for themselves. They have found the same thing. Excellent question.

[@atislav]

Sauber F1 Team Excellent answer, thank you very much guys. I wish you the best for the rest of the 2014 season. I hope regulations will not change much for the next one, so you and other teams will be able to focus on improvements to become more competetive, because you 100% deserve it. (Accept my apologies for my English.)

[@michaelastockbauer672]

Fantastic Video. That technology used today is phenomenal! Even if i think that F1 Aerodynamics today have one Problem - because of all the tools and possibilities the Aerodynamic of a Formula 1 Car is too instabile. All These vortex that are created and the airflow split up into 1000 different airflows is making the cars aerodynamic too complicated and instabile. I think a step back towards the aerodynamic concept of Cars like the F2002 f.e. would make the Cars Aerodynamically as effective but more stabile than the Cars with 1000 different airflows, which are constructed today.

[@albertlert]

A great video. A lot of insight. Thank you. :D

[@Peter_Jenner]

That was great. Cheers.

[@ironcito1101]

3 megawatts! Damn! Wind tunnels are way more complicated than I thought. I kinda figured it was a tube and a fan, haha. I don't like the over-regulation, though. A limit on FLOPS? And a limit that's getting lower while computers are getting exponentially faster. You'll eventually be doing your CFD calculations with a smartphone.

[@jamalazawy3688]

Hello, can someone help me with a calculation method by using mathematical equations to choose a fan of suitable capacity for the tunnel attached to the picture, the speed is 30 meters / second, the metal is steel

[@willemtoet_yt]

The answer depends on the design of the wind tunnel and losses in the corners etc. There is no simple equation that will calculate this for you. Sorry! With big horsepower one can get high speed airflow but you also need good flow distribution around the wind tunnel which also uses some power as well as good design to achieve. Industrial and wind tunnel fan supplier should be able to tell you what wind speed the fan can generate. That can give you a first order estimate.

[@leoa4c]

Thank you, Sauber. The belt does not replicate the tarmac's texture. Why is that?

[@willemtoet_yt]

It can, and at Sauber (for Alfa Romeo) we do try to get a match tarmac roughness - but every track is different. Some F1 teams run a smooth belt knowing that it is wrong but do that for improved force measurement repeatability. They then use computer science to predict what happens on track. For each track we get average tarmac roughness values on a macroscopic (stone sizes effectively) and microscopic (little sharp edges and holes) scale. It is measured for the tyre people but is useful for aero too..... :-) So one has to have tricks available to predict how airflow will change as the road gets rougher. One example - aero balance (how much downforce is on the front or rear) changes with road roughness. Why? Because air rushing under the front wing induces a bigger boundary layer if the road is rough.....

[@Fullgaseverywhere]

As an automotive engineer I am impressed! Thanks for this great video!

[@BradMcClaren]

My advice is to figure out where and how you'll record measurements first. Everything else will fall into place.

[@BradMcClaren]

And skip smoke. There are better, easier ways to see flow without probes or heated wires.

[@MrJamesBanana]

Are you hiring your windtunnel to other teams or companies? I heard yours is the best in F1

[@sauberf1team]

Top secret, Daniel ;-) But we do quite a bit of what we call third-party business in various areas.

how much to build one in my back yard

[@willemtoet_yt]

The Sauber tunnel cost 55m Euros including the building which houses about 100 people and has workshops and office space.... A low cost version suitable for motorsport would cost more that 20m. Lower quality ones are not worth building - they exist and are going partly unused.
