Strange Factory’s Pipe

Some time ago this factory pipe looked pretty regular - just like on the picture above, but now it looks very different. They made something that cannot be understood without knowing what for it was made. Look below.

I saw it!
Recycling.
photoshop, quite obvious really
Damn, these photoshops are getting better.
Not only the blog is cool but the comments too. My personal favourites: IGOR the fag and this photoshop fellow.
incredibly cool. I’d love to know more about where/what this is.
Its an vertical wind tunnel in Moscow’s main aerodynamics institute TsAGI
not even remotely the same place/pipe
Where’s Babushka these days?
factory worker: *COUGH*COUGH*COUGH* WHAT GENIUS THOUGHT THAT ROUTING THE SMOKESTACK BACK INTO THE FACTORY WAS A GOOD IDEA???
Good one.
LOL! Yes, definitely a good one!
Who said that its a smokestack? This seems to be obvious to me that its now a storage silo, not a smokestack.
yes, and they need a giant metal tunnel at the top to access it. Stupid Lithuanian!
Lithuanian?? No … Not even any Lithuanian blood in me.
Why should there be a service port outside, when it can be done entirely inside?
This is not in Russia. It is north of Tehran, where my scientists work on secret new weapon.
How did you get this photo? Please return to Tehran on next flight, so I may take you to public square and . . . choppy choppy!!
P.S. can you please stop in the duty-free shop at airport and get some chocolates for me?
I think RUB4,000 for 2 hours escort is too expensive, don’t you guys agree?
Please take next flight to Tehran to be punish for prostitution. We will take you to public square for stoning. We hit you with rocky rocky!!
But, if you bring me nice gift from airport duty-free shop, I can get you higher price than RUB 2,000 per hour . . . if you still wish to sell yourself.
Yours,
MA
This is a wind tunnel in aerodynamics institute TSAGI
You guys love Wikipedia, don’t you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_tunnel (last picture on page).
no plane would fit in this tunnel
look at the picture at this page for better view
it is barely 10m (30ft) wide
Idiot, they use models
Aleksi, Niels R.,
Thanks for revealing this as TsAGI.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:TsAGI_with_vertical_tube_autumn2006.jpg
very well, in what part of the tube do they test the models?
and what is the reason for building a tube that is not straigt?
I mean from where does the wind blow and in what direction to blow straigth and not create wirls caused by the 45 degree turns
“from where does the wind blow and in what direction. . . .”
Very philosophical question, my friend. Come to Tehran on next flight and we will discuss it over tea and pastries.
P.S. can you stop at duty-free shop and bring me nice bottle of cologne?
Um lol? In the vertical part
I understand that, but it doesnt explain to me how this particular form of the construction gives the optimal speed of the wind and uniformity of direction
Umh, I DONT KNOW! I dont work there
jeppe,
TsAGI’s web-site may interest you also. They have several types of wind tunnels.

Perhaps they get fresher air from the factory pipe than from the russian city around it…
Secondary smoking kills.

It looks like a poorly modified stack (venturi at the corners, instead of reflectors); I should like to have seen the scaffolding for neat removal of bricks too.
At first, I thought ‘carbon sequestration in prime real-estate?’ …and ‘what happened to the microwave relays?’
Even better; make a smoking-friendly apartment and let the carbon sequestering people take it easy.
Happy winter. (Or: I thought this North-America place was photoshopped from the start!)
the clowds tell us that it is a photoshop work.
IN SOVIET RUSSIA CHIMNEY SMOKES YOU
In Soviet Russia Wind Tunnels You!!!
