Electric Vehicle Automotive Aerodynamic On-Car Pressure Scanning
Our latest Application note covers the importance of aerodynamic on-car testing in the Electric Vehicle industry. “A key factor in determining the performance and distance capability of a new EV road car is in understanding its aerodynamic performance. This has a huge effect on its vehicle dynamics and ultimately on its “All Electric Range” that […]
EvoScann® supports Formula Student Racing Team
KA-RaceIng, the Formula Student Team of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, have been undertaking an extensive testing and validation programme for their latest Formula Student challenger car, the autonomous racecar, KIT21d. In order to fully measure and validate the performance of their front wing and analyse their wheel wake, an impressive wheel wake rake was built […]
Moto Guzzi – Nato nella Galleria Del Vento – “Born out of the wind tunnel”
On the shore of Lake Como at Moto Guzzi’s factory, there’s a unique, historic building quietly tucked away in a corner of the site that is almost 70 years old. I would like to share my own passion for Moto Guzzi, and my job in Aerodynamic measurements, to explore this iconic building with the reader: […]
Miniature Pressure Scanner Increases Accuracy
EvoScann’s highly miniaturised differential pressure scanner has increased its accuracy levels by 5x, when compared with its previous capabilities, firmly placing it as the most accurate scanner at this level in the market. Engineering developments and continuous improvements have enabled the EvoScann® P8-D to deliver full-scale accuracy which is 5x better than before. Full scale […]
True Differential Pressure Scanner
The manufacturers of EvoScann® P8-Series pressure scanner have further developed the revolutionary instrument to now offer true differential pressure measurement. This means that the PxD variant of the instrument is instantaneously measuring the difference between two points, lending itself directly into the pitot-static market, or for use on Kiel Probes in aero-dynamic testing or for […]
Watch Full Video of NCME’s Ensign Aerodynamic Project
Last year, we supported the National Centre for Motorsport Engineering at University of Bolton (NCME) with an exciting project. Ensign 180b, which is owned by motor racing supremo Dr Bob Fernley, is a former Formula 1 car which also later raced in the US CanAm series.Students at NCME had the rare opportunity of working directly […]
The 16 Channel Digital Pressure Scanner Favoured by Aerodynamicists
With 16 digital pressure channels, EvoScann® P16-A is the perfect tool in any aerodynamicists toolbox. Weighing-in at less than 18g and fully encased in carbon fibre, with a single communications and power lead, EvoScann® P-Series is ideal for a wide range of applications, often being inserted directly inside an aerofoil section where it provides no […]
Aerodynamics: Ground Effect Data
Iain Gordon of Evolution Measurement gives an outline of how the Ensign N180B student team from the National Centre for Motorsport Engineering at University of Bolton captured some crucial ground effect data, and what teams do with such information. 16 EvoScann® P16-A (16 channel scanners) were fitted to the upper aero surfaces and the underside […]
Aerodynamic Measurement Support for NCME Students
It’s not often that a motorsport student would have the opportunity to work on a piece of Formula 1 history but that’s exactly what’s happening at the National Centre for Motorsport Engineering at University of Bolton. Ensign N180B, which is owned by motor racing supremo Dr Bob Fernley, is a former Formula 1 car which […]
Pressure Scanner Supports Clean Sky 2
Evolution Measurement is delighted to announce their partnership deal in the EU’s Clean Sky 2 Project. UK based, Evolution Measurement, will supply its EvoScann® P-Series pressure scanners to assist in the testing phase of Clean Sky 2, the largest European research programme developing innovative, cutting-edge technology aimed at reducing CO2, gas emissions and noise levels […]
