After weeks of hard work, we\u2019ve finalized our fittings and successfully secured our first top plate onto the wind tunnel test section. With the remaining plates CNC-machined, our next step is to drill the angled orifices\u2014an exciting challenge that will follow our initial test. We&#8217;ve refined our study to focus on 30-, 45-, and 60-degree angles, a strategic adjustment based on manufacturing constraints discovered during  fabrication. If time allows, we\u2019ll also flip the 45-degree plate to gather data on forced airflow through the orifice, adding another layer of insight to our study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, our ANSYS team has made significant strides, mastering the software to generate detailed simulations. These models will be crucial for comparing our experimental transducer data, ensuring accuracy and deepening our understanding of air bleeding in supersonic flow. With testing on the horizon, we\u2019re eager to uncover new insights. Stay tuned\u2014things are about to get exciting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" data-id=\"1141\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_8201-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_8201-rotated.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_8201-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_8201-158x210.jpg 158w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">CNCed top plates with no angled orifices<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-id=\"1139\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_1614.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_1614.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_1614-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2425team06\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/183\/2025\/02\/IMG_1614-280x210.jpg 280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wind tunnel test section with top plate installed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week marks a major milestone in our project as we transition from manufacturing to testing!
