Wall pressure measurements for three-dimensional transonic tests

W. G. Sewall

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

An experiment is described that provides input data for wind-tunnel wall interference assessment methods that are based on test-section wall pressure distributions. Wall pressures have been measured along orifice rows on the test-section walls during longitudinal force tests on two model sizes of the same configuration. These data were acquired at Mach numbers between 0.60 and 0.90 in a small, atmospheric transonic wind tunnel. A sample of the data and a discussion of results are presented.
