The Jules Verne climatic wind tunnel is a research facility at the Scientific and Technical Centre for Building (CSTB) site in Nantes, France. It enables the study of building and construction components, vehicles and equipment under a range of climatic conditions, being able to simulate snow, hail, rain, fog, sandstorms, heatwaves and freezing conditions.[1]
It is classified as a major research facility and was reopened on the 29th of March 2019 by Francois de Rugy, Minister of State following an €8.5 million upgrade programme funded by Nantes Métropole, the Pays de la Loire region and the European Regional Investment Fund (FEDER).[2]
In 2018 the wind tunnel was used by UNICEF for their innovation programme to develop a new series of high performance tents.[3]
