The hemispherical drag model is investigated in the measuring section of the wind tunnel HM 170. The drag body consists of a hemisphere made of steel sheet and a mounting rod made of corrosion-resistant steel. The hemisphere is painted red. The drag body is placed in the force sensor, this indicates the drag force as a measured value in flow around bodies.
