Download or read book Wind Tunnel Wall Correction written by B. F. R. Ewald and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report was compiled by an international team of wind tunnel wall correction experts. It presents the present state of the art in wind tunnel wall corrections with a special emphasis given to the description of modern wall correction methods based on Computational Fluid Dynamics. This AGARDograph was planned by the AGARD Fluid Dynamics Panel to be a modern sequel of the successful AGARDograph 109 "Subsonic Wind Tunnel Wall Corrections", which was published in 1966. AGARDogaph 109 is still valid and continues to be used to provide wall corrections in many wind tunnels. Nevertheless, in the thirty two years since the publication of AGARDograph 109, much work has been done on the subject, and the influence of the new tool of numerical fluid dynamics was so strong, that a sequel to AGARDograph 109 was considered to be necessary.

This book was released on 1951 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calculations of the ratios of the velocity increments at test bodies to those at the tunnel walls caused by the solid blocking of these bodies within the walls of a closed rectangular wind tunnel are presented. The boides treated include two-dimensional airfoils; small bodies of revolution; straight, untapered, finite-span wings of varying span; and swept, untapered, finite-span wings of varying span. It is shown that, after wake blocking effects have been removed , the present method furnishes semiempirical blocking corrections for most wind-tunnel models and their components. The test section proportions of the Southern California Cooperative Wind Tunnel at CIT (ratio of height to width equal to 1/square root of 2) are used in the calculations.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigation reported herein is the experimental portion of a unified theoretical and experimental search for a slotted wind tunnel wall configuration with minimal interference for conventional and V/STOL models. It is shown that theory and experiment are in excellent agreement for the classical case provided an appropriate expression is used to relate the wall geometry to the boundary condition. Classical data correction equations are not appropriate for the V/STOL case, however. An additional term, not predicted by theory, is needed to account for changes in the jet wake. Geometric parameters which influence the wall interference quantities are indicated. Wall configurations are shown which will produce interference-free force data to a jet-to-free-stream velocity ratio of 4.5. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brand-new edition of the classic guide on low-speed wind tunnel testing While great advances in theoretical and computational methods have been made in recent years, low-speed wind tunnel testing remains essential for obtaining the full range of data needed to guide detailed design decisions for many practical engineering problems. This long-awaited Third Edition of William H. Rae, Jr.'s landmark reference brings together essential information on all aspects of low-speed wind tunnel design, analysis, testing, and instrumentation in one easy-to-use resource. Written by authors who are among the most respected wind tunnel engineers in the world, this edition has been updated to address current topics and applications, and includes coverage of digital electronics, new instrumentation, video and photographic methods, pressure-sensitive paint, and liquid crystal-based measurement methods. The book is organized for quick access to topics of interest, and examines basic test techniques and objectives of modeling and testing aircraft designs in low-speed wind tunnels, as well as applications to fluid motion analysis, automobiles, marine vessels, buildings, bridges, and other structures subject to wind loading. Supplemented with real-world examples throughout, Low-Speed Wind Tunnel Testing, Third Edition is an indispensable resource for aerospace engineering students and professionals, engineers and researchers in the automotive industries, wind tunnel designers, architects, and others who need to get the most from low-speed wind tunnel technology and experiments in their work.

Download or read book Two dimensional Wind Tunnel Wall Interference written by M. Mokry and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A description and analysis is presented of the more important developments during the past decade in the understanding of the wall interference problem associated with two-dimensional wind tunnel testing at subsonic and transonic speeds. Discussed are: wall boundary conditions; asymptotic analysis of wall interference; classical and extended wall interference theories; wall interference corrections from boundary measurements; integral equation formulation of subcritical wall interference; and effects of side wall boundary layer on two-dimensional tests. Unsteady wall interference at subsonic flow conditions is reviewed. Recent advances in the adaptive wall technique, which actively reduces or eliminates wall interference, are also described.

This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of using a low-order panel code to estimate wind tunnel wall corrections. The corrections were found by two computations. The first computation included the test model and the surrounding wind tunnel walls, while in the second computation the wind tunnel walls were removed. The difference between the force and moment coefficients obtained by comparing these two cases allowed the determination of the wall corrections. The technique was verified by matching the test-section, wall-pressure signature from a wind tunnel test with the signature predicted by the panel code. To prove the viability of the technique, two cases were considered. The first was a two-dimensional high-lift wing with a flap that was tested in the 7- by 10-foot wind tunnel at NASA Ames Research Center. The second was a 1/32-scale model of the F/A-18 aircraft which was tested in the low-speed wind tunnel at San Diego State University. The panel code used was PMARC (Panel Method Ames Research Center). Results of this study indicate that the proposed wind tunnel wall correction method is comparable to other methods and that it also inherently includes the corrections due to model blockage and wing lift.
