Abstract
Flow quality testing in wind tunnels is a very significant activity in
experimental aerodynamics. It includes many different methods and uses
modern devices. This paper
presents the survey of the most significant methods for determining
parameters required
for flow characterization in the wind tunnel test section, for subsonic and
supersonic
velocities. The presented survey includes the methods for the determination
of Mach number, flow velocity vector, flow angularity, turbulence intensity,
Reynolds number,
temperature variation, aerodynamic noise intensity and boundary layer.
Besides the basic principles and equipment, each method is illustrated by
the results
available in the literature or obtained in the aerodynamic laboratories of
VTI.
Key words: experimental aerodynamics, wind tunnel, aerodynamic
testing, flow visualization, flow velocity, velocity measurement, pressure
measurement, noise measurement, turbulence, Mach number, boundary layer.
