Dr. KANNAN B T developed the Advanced Computing Lab with the available resources and support from Superiors.
He is guiding Under Graduate (B.Tech Aerospace Engineering) students to develop experimental facilities for performing experiments.
Originally started in the Department Library
The existing lab was upgraded for ambience !
The tunnel was developed by Murukesh Muralidhar, Saneesh Joy and Akhil Pappetta for studying Industrial Aerodynamic Problems
The small scale Shock Tube was developed by Aravind and Anugya Singh for studying Blast Wave Propogation
The tunnel was developed by Bunny Yeleti, Rakshantha Mohan and Sanjana Sanjay for studying Smoldering Phenomenon
The chamber was developed by Vishal Dharanidhar, Amith Joseph and Sai Tejashwar for studying Aeroacoustics and Jet Flow Acoustics
The setup was developed by Kharar Ahmed Khan for studying Low Speed Turbulent Jets
This facility was developed by Abdul Hamid Rather for studying Impinging Jet Phenomenons
The fluidized bed seeding generator was developed by Gousik, Naresh and Sri Vijay Prabhu for creating seeding for aerodynamics studies
Dr. KANNAN B T worked with fellow research scholars and students during his Ph.D research work towards building the following facilities and used them for experiments. The experiments included measurements (including calibration, with repeatability and reproducibility) and visualization.
This facility was created by Research Scholars under the guidance of faculty member for facilitating the experimental turbulence research.
This facility was developed to study multiple jets with option to control individual jet in the multiple jet configuration. The flow is generated by a set of blowers and controlled by Variable Frequency Drives.
This tunnel was created to study the effects of grids on shear layer flow. This was developed primarily by Mr. Rakend Reddy (presently at Sukra) during his M.S Research work.
This was developed to facilitate automated probe movements and measurements for turbulent flows like Jets and Shear Layers. The unique feature of this traverse is about its traverse length of 2000 mm.
This tunnel was developed to study pure coherent shear flow turbulence. The unique feature of this facility is it having 50 jets and 50 suctions. This was primarily developed by Mr. Arun Kumar (Scientist at NTAF, CSIR-NAL) during his M.Tech Project work.
This facility was developed as a trial facility to study the mixing of multiple jets. The initial setup was primarily developed by Mr.Aravindh Kumar (M.Tech IITM and Ex Prof at Rajalakshmi Engineering College) during his M.Tech Project work to study the reversal length of jet flow by visualization. .
