Tun­nel Sim­u­la­tion Fa­cil­i­ty Göt­tin­gen
This testing facility, which is located at the DLR Institute of Aerodynamics and Flow Technology in Göttingen, consists of the Tunnel Simulation Facility (TSG) itself and the Crosswind Test Facility (SWG). Together, they form a one-of-a-kind centre for studying stationary and transient aerodynamics, such as the effects that occur when trains enter tunnels. The ef­fect of cross­winds and sud­den gusts on mov­ing ve­hi­cles can be anal­ysed with the track’s cross­wind gen­er­a­tor, and the fa­cil­i­ty al­so al­lows the aero­dy­nam­i­cal­ly-in­duced loads on ob­jects close to the track to be stud­ied as ve­hi­cles pass.
