Selection criteria of optimal conditions for supersonic tests in a blowdown wind tunnel [PDF]
Scientific Technical Review, 2016 A natural desire of a wind tunnel test engineer is to plan and perform a test that will resemble the actual flight conditions as closely as possible. Geometric similarity and identical flight and wind tunnel Mach numbers are the primary requirements and ...

Thermal effects influencing measurements in a supersonic blowdown wind tunnel
Thermal Science, 2016 During a supersonic run of a blowdown wind tunnel, temperature of air in the test section drops which can affect planned measurements. Adverse thermal effects include variations of the Mach and Reynolds numbers, variation of airspeed, condensation of moisture on the model, change of characteristics of the instrumentation in the model, et ...
