• State of art Photonics technology that enables profiling of Wind Speed, Direction, Temperature, Density etc.
  • SAMIRA is Real Time Remote Monitoring of Wind Data Parameters.
    • The current technological trends dictate that a steel mast be erected and wind measurements be made for a period of one year at that location.
    • SAMIRA does not require setting up of a steel mast and the associated constructions and erections. This would enable huge savings.
    • In addition, the system is highly sensitive and accurate.
    • The system is different from some of the existing new laser based (LIDAR) technologies and is much cheaper, cost effective and free of the associated constraints and disadvantages faced by LIDARS.
    • Can also be easily extended for off shore applications.

  • Although a number of technologies and techniques are available, this technology is highly sensitive, accurate and again free of the constraints associated with the other available technologies. Easy to fit, minimal space requirements, longer life.
  • Consumes less electrical energy and can run on batteries.
  • Can also be extended for off shore application.
  • Optimizing maintenance activities during planned shutdowns and lowering the instances of unscheduled outages.

WIND TUNNEL FACILITIES are only found in large Governmental Institutes due their exorbitant costs. VAYU is pioneered as a very sensitive and low cost wind tunnel facility for educational and R&D institutes at affordable cost.

  • CATS has developed the capabilities for designing and fabricating low cost subsonic wind tunnels with pertinent instrumentation for many applications.
  • World's first and one of its kind Wind Tunnel with Photonic monitoring System.
  • Conventionally intrusive wind sensors, pressure sensors, Temperature sensors are used for various measurements in wind tunnel.
  • However VAYU has only one photonic monitoring system which remotely measures all parameters.
  • The VAYU's photonic monitoring system is highly sensitive and accurate.
  • Innovative honey comb structure for turbulence mitigation.
  • Auto programmable fan for regulating wind speed.
  • Complete computer control of wind tunnel facility for performing experimentation
