WindEEE

Andy | Monday, June 03, 2013 | Best Blogger Tips

Located in London, Ontario, the WindEEE Dome, (Wind Engineering Energy and Environment) the world’s first hexagonal wind tunnel, represents a technological breakthrough in the study of wind-related phenomena as it has the capability of physically simulating high intensity wind systems – including tornados, downbursts, gust fronts or low-level nocturnal currents – that cannot be created in any of the existing wind tunnels. All of the above info I found on the WindEEE web page. You can locate it here.

  1. I hope that it will give some solutions for the victims of these forces of nature and not more insight in them.

  2. How very cool that this is right there in your neck of woods; with all the extreme weather now, seems many would benefit from what scientists are learning in this "lab."

  3. Fascinating. I'm sure it puts the lie to the phrase, "It was all sound and fury, signifying nothing!"

  4. Interesting, Andy. If this can help us to understand hurricanes and tornadoes better, it would be well worth the cost.

  5. They could have studies wind here today. Must have blown at 25-30 mph all day, but then I should be use to it as the wind always blows here. Interesting building.
