Wind Test

The sand sample, shaped conically, underwent a preparation process involving the removal of a specific section. This excised portion was then coated with 50ml of a meticulously formulated, atomized, and non-toxic dust suppression fluid. Following the coating application, the sample underwent a drying period of up to 3 hours within a cool ambient environment of 20° Celsius. Subsequently, the treated sample was subjected to testing within a wind tunnel.

The removal of the aforementioned section was purposeful, intended to gauge the thickness of the applied sand coating (ranging from 2mm to 3mm) under direct exposure to wind force. In this scenario, the laminar airflow interacted with the vertical surface before passing over it. In a regular scenario without the coating, the exposed edges of the removed sector would erode within seconds, analogous to the rapid erosion of a sand dune.
