Problems solved by technology

[0009] In addition to this, the operation of the cooling system (especially the auxiliary fan and the air flowing through the heat exchanger) aggravated by the cooling system ducts acts as a noise generator in the simulator due to the fact that at the lower edge of the nozzle below the flight chamber Concentrated exhaust of the cooling system, and the noise protrudes into the flight compartment and thus reduces the comfort of the occupants

Embodiment Construction

[0037] figure 1 A free fall simulator according to claim 1 shows an example of a free fall simulator 1 . A free fall simulator 1 is installed in a building 100 .

[0038] according to figure 1 The free fall simulator includes a flight chamber 3 into which the user of the simulator 1 can enter. At the bottom of the flight chamber 3 is installed a safety net 3A (for example, made of wire) which serves as a floor of the flight chamber 3 . Air flows through the net 3A from bottom to top, affecting upwardly the lifting of the user of the simulator 1, the force of the upwardly flowing air counteracting the force of gravity acting on the user.

[0039] The rest of the simulator 1 connected to the flight chamber 3 and through which the air flows is described as a wind tunnel system 2 . The wind tunnel system 2 and the flight chamber 3 together constitute a circulating wind tunnel. From the flight chamber 3 upwards, in the direction of the air flow, the wind tunnel system 2 compri...

Abstract

A free fall simulator (1) comprising: a wind tunnel system (2); a flight chamber (3) connected to the wind tunnel system such that the wind tunnel system and the flight chamber allow for a continuousflow of circulating air, and a cooling system (11) for cooling of the air circulating in the wind tunnel system, wherein the cooling system comprises: (i) an air inlet (17) sucking in a part of the air circulating in the wind tunnel system; (ii) at least one heat exchanger (15) comprising a coolant; and (iii) at least one air outlet (16) adapted such that the cooled air leaves the cooling system through the at least one air outlet. The cooling system (11) further comprises: (iv) a closed pressure chamber (11A) comprising a cooling area (11B), wherein pressure in said cooling area (11B) is higher than atmospheric pressure, and (v) at least one auxiliary fan (14) configured to maintain pressure within the cooling area of the pressure chamber (11A) higher than the atmospheric pressure, wherein the at least one heat exchanger (15) is located inside of the closed pressure chamber (11A) so that the cooling of the circulating air takes place in the cooling area (11B).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention focuses on improving the existing free-fall simulator, especially the improvement of the circulating air cooling system of the simulator. Background technique [0002] A similar free-fall simulator extended by the present invention has been described in Czech utility model No. 2009-21805. This modern system takes advantage of the favorable shape of the wind tunnel system combined with the favorable arrangement of the fans, and it has disclosed certain advantages associated with the use of an internal cooling system located within the wind tunnel system. [0003] Further developments in the field of free fall simulators have shown that, despite the increased effectiveness of the known free fall simulation systems described above, there are still certain deficiencies which need to be addressed in order to obtain a higher level of comfort for the user and It is easier to integrate a free-fall simulator which enables the simulator to be inte...
