Gone with the Wind
| Division: | Health Sciences | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Northwestern Ontario | | City: | Thunder Bay, ON | | School: | Sir John A. Macdonald P.S. | | Abstract: | My experiment determined whether roofs with different pitches are affected differently during a windstorm. Two roof angles (45º, 30º) were tested at three wind speeds in a wind tunnel while measuring pressure inside and outside each roof. Pressure on each surface depended on the volume and aerodynamics of each roof. |
