Smoke Generator

About Smoke Generator

Overview

A compact, high-performance smoke generation system designed for qualitative airflow visualization in wind tunnel and laboratory environments. Producing dense, visible smoke using propylene glycol or white mineral oil, the system enables clear observation of flow patterns, separation, and turbulence.

Key Features

• Dense, Visible Smoke Output for clear flow visualization
• Dual Fluid Compatibility: Propylene glycol or white mineral oil
• Adjustable Smoke Density & Flow Rate
• Compact, Portable Design
• Quick Setup with Standard Air Supply

Smoke Fluid Options

Propylene Glycol

• Minimal residue on models
• Odor-free operation
