Since 02 November 2009 in BSHC-BAS a new aerodynamics research and training laboratory is functioning. Its purpose is to perform up-to-date for the Bulgarian economy research investigations in the fields of: * air pressure loading of constructions of industrial and civil buildings; * air resistance of transport objects; * metrological security of air flows characteristics measuring instruments; * ecology; * national defense , as well as for training and presentation purposes.   The laboratory is built with the financial assistance of the National Scientce Fund affiliated to the Ministry of Education and Science under a project “Building and development of research infrastructure in the natural sciences field”. It is used in a consortium together with “Fr.Nansen” Institute of Oceanology (BAS) and N.Y.Vaptsarov Naval Academy .	* Aerodynamics Laboratory * Wind Tunnel * Air Filters Test Stand * Multifunctional Aerodynamic Stand * Educational Centre
At the creati on of the laboratory consecutively are put and solved important organizational, research and applied tasks such as: formulation of a common conception for the research and applied activities; stipulation of the technical requirements toward the parameters and the respective documents for the production and delivery of new up-to-date measuring equipment; preparation of projects and construction of automative measuring and control system in the aerodynamics lab; setting up of a computer network in the lab and its connection to the BSHC's network
