Recirculating canal
This canal, located in Centrale Nantes, has a 2 m-wide test section, approximately 10 m in length. Maximal water depth is about 1.10 m.
Part of the test section is equipped with side glass walls (1.6 m wide), allowing visual observation of the flow, as well as the measurement, for example using laser velocimetry, of fluid particles velocities.
