CONSTRUCTION OF A DIDACTIC WIND TUNNEL AS A PEDAGOGICAL APPLICATION IN TECHNICAL EDUCATION

ABSTRACT: A didactic wind tunnel was designed and built as a pedagogical proposal aimed at teachers students of technical course in mechatronics integrated into the high school Federal Institute São Paulo. The to analyze learning results from implementation project added an experimental test; well investigate integration contents interdisciplinarity this practice, also present technical-mathematical analysis involved construction equipment test. simultaneous approach between practice investigation constitutes differential research. Positive points arising were evidenced may support future interactions development projects with testing. Besides proving existing theories about air dynamics, sought bring closer universe applied science through dialogic encouraging teacher mediation, providing holistic view theory set professional technological training.
