Jun 20, 2007 Scania CD5 Wind Speed System Operational
Scania CV AB of Södertälje, Sweden, recently inaugurated the CD5 Wind Speed System. This sophisticated dynamometer test cell is, in effect, a “wind tunnel” capable of simulating hot driving conditions for Scania’s developmental vehicle testing program. Aiolos was awarded the turnkey design and supply contract for the facility following an in-depth study phase in 2003, which laid the groundwork for a concept, involving an innovative use of the building to form the airline of the air circuit. A key ingredient to this successful project was Aiolos’ coordination of interfaces with Scania and its dynamometer supplier (Renk AG).
