Prediction of the flow-field interference induced by the long-range laser velocimeter in the Ames 40- by 80-foot and the 80- by 120-foot wind tunnels

Prediction of the flow-field interference induced by the long-range laser velocimeter in the Ames 40- by 80-foot and the 80- by 120-foot wind tunnels

The predicted flow disturbances induced in the test sections of the Ames 40- by 80-Foot Wind Tunnels by the presence of the Long-Range Laser Velocimeter (LRLV) are presented. The predictions were made using a potential-flow paneling code to model the test section and the LRLV, and a calculation of t...

Zusammenfassung:The predicted flow disturbances induced in the test sections of the Ames 40- by 80-Foot Wind Tunnels by the presence of the Long-Range Laser Velocimeter (LRLV) are presented. The predictions were made using a potential-flow paneling code to model the test section and the LRLV, and a calculation of the resulting flow field was made. The flow velocity and angularity were calculated at numerous locations in the flow field relative to the LRLV, and the results are presented.
