The lift body aerofoil is investigated in the measuring section of the wind tunnel HM 170. The lift body consists of an aerofoil section made of plastic and mounting bracket made of corrosion-resistant steel. The aerofoil is painted red and is fitted with guide panels at the ends. These ensure that the flow is optimally aligned with the aerofoil. The lift body is placed in the force sensor, this indicates the drag force and the lift force as a measured value in flow around bodies.
