Researchers used a highly pressurized wind tunnel to simulate winds in the atmosphere. A wind tunnel is a closed space used to test air flow. They wanted to see how winds interact with wind turbines, which make electricity. The team tested a 15-centimeter turbine at pressures up to 240 atmospheres. This increased the air density to mimic a turbine up…
