SPHERE TEST: REVISIT WIND TUNNEL TURBULENCE ABSTRACT One of the most widely used methodologies in characterising the quality of a wind tunnel is to study the flow over a sphere.The flow around the bluff body was characterised using smoke test‚ and the region of flow separation was analysed. The drag characteristics of 3 spheres of different diameters were studied for a wide range of Reynolds number. The Reynolds number at which the transition occurs is strongly dependent on the degree of turbulence
