摘要: |
An investigation was conducted using hot-wire anemometry to determine the turbulence intensity levels in the test section of the Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel in the closed or walls-down configuration. This study was one component of the three-dimensional High-Lift Flow Physics experiment designed to provide code validation data. Turbulence intensities were measured during two stages of the study. In the first stage, the free-stream turbulence levels were measured before and after a change was made to the floor suction surface of the wind tunnel s boundary layer removal system. The results indicated that the new suction surface at the entrance to the test section had little impact on the turbulence intensities. The second stage was an overall flow quality survey of the empty tunnel including measurements of the turbulence levels at several vertical and streamwise locations. Results indicated that the turbulence intensity is a function of tunnel dynamic pressure and the location in the test section. The general shape of the frequency spectrum is fairly consistent throughout the wind tunnel, changing mostly in amplitude (also slightly with frequency) with change in condition and location. |
