Two Component Balance

Two Component Balance:

Two component balance features a simple unique lever system employing vertical and horizontal balance beams to provide independent measurement of lift and drag forces using precision spring balances. Adjustable balance weights allow easy initial setup and zeroing of the system.

Experimental Capability of Two Component Balance:

1. Lift and Drag Force by direct measurement  
2. Lift and Drag coefficients and Lift Drag ratio

Features of Two Component Balance:  

1. Independent measurement of lift and drag by unique vertical and horizontal balance beams  
2. Accurate force measurement provided by two precision spring balances  
3. Adjustable balance weights for initial set-up  
4. Optional analogue load cells providing 0 to 10 Volt output

Speciification of Two Component Balance:   

Designed to measure horizontal and vertical forces and is particularly convenient for use with Two Dimensional Wind Tunnel, in order to measure, lift and drag forces on aerofoil sections.

Adjustable balance weights for free and easy movement of unit, allows zeroing adjustments to be made to balances. Lift and drag can be measured directly.
