Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents procedures, analysis methods, and final results pertaining to the LO-LOCAT Phase 3 program. Approximately 150 hours of low altitude (100 - 1000 feet) turbulence and associated meteorological data were recorded from 16 August 1968 through 30 June 1969. A model of the turbulence environment at low-level is presented in terms of gust velocity primary peaks, level crossings, amplitude samples, rms values, and gust maxima, as well as derived equivalent gusts, turbulence scale lengths, and power spectra. Mathematical expressions for turbulence spectra, scale length, and primary peak statistics are shown. Correlations between atmospheric gust velocities and meteorological and geophysical phenomena are evaluated. It was found that gust velocity magnitude at low altitude is most affected by atmospheric stability and terrain. Gust velocity rms values above 1.5 fps may be approximated by truncated Gaussian distributions. For wavelengths less than 15,000 feet, turbulence spectra are best represented by the von Karman mathematical expressions. The turbulence, sampled for 4-1/2 minute intervals over a distance of approximately 32 miles at absolute altitudes below 1,000 feet, was found to be basically stationary, isotropic, and homogeneous.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents of this report describe accomplishments during the first half of the Low-Level Critical Air Turbulence (LO-LOCAT) Phase III program. Data that were obtained during flight over routes near McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, and Edwards Air Force Base, California, are presented. Also included are time histories of some of the larger magnitude gust velocities recorded over the Peterson Field, Colorado route. Approximately 72 hours of low-level (0-1000 feet) turbulence and associated meteorological data recorded from August 16, 1968, through January 8, 1969, are presented. The turbulence environment is analyzed in terms of gust velocity primary peaks, amplitude samples, rms values, maximum values and derived equivalent gusts. Mathematical expressions for turbulence spectra and scale length statistics, and correlations between atmospheric gust velocities and meteorological and geophysical phenomena are shown. The most predominant characteristics of these data are the increases in rms values, scale lengths, Taylor micro scales and maximum gust values as compared to the LO-LOCAT Phases I and II data. These differences are attributed to the increased speed of the Phase III airplane which is providing a better definition of the longer wavelengths of atmospheric turbulence. This report consists of two volumes. Volume I contains a discussion of data acquisition and quality, along with a preliminary analysis of turbulence and meteorological data.
