A procedure for predicting internal and external noise fields of blowdown wind tunnels

open access: yes, 1972
The noise generated during the operation of large blowdown wind tunnels is considered. Noise calculation procedures are given to predict the test-section overall and spectrum level noise caused by both the tunnel burner and turbulent boundary layer ...

Design of acoustic mufflers for blowdown wind tunnels

open access: yes, 1974
This work was initiated with the objective of providing effective silencers for the blowdown wind tunnels and other sources of significant aerodynamic noise at the Wind Tunnel Centre.

Design of transonic test-sections for blowdown wind tunnels

open access: yes, 1961
The basic design features of ventilated wall transonic test-sections for blowdown wind tunnels are reviewed with respect to the flow quality requirements and wall interferences characteristics.

Comments on settling chamber design for quiet, blowdown wind tunnels

open access: yes, 1981
Transfer of an existing continous circuit supersonic wind tunnel to Langley and its operation there as a blowdown tunnel is planned. Flow disturbance requirements in the supply section and methods for reducing the high level broad band acoustic ...

The installation and performance evaluation of a small supersonic wind tunnel system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1961
This report describes the procedure utilized in the assembly and evaluation of a small intermittent blowdown supersonic wind tunnel. The tunnel proper was fully constructed and nozzle blocks for attainment of a Mach number of 1.5 or 2.37 in the 1/2 ...

Smooth leading edge transition in hypersonic flow. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The boundary layer transition along the attachment line of a smooth swept circular cylinder in hypersonic flow is investigated in a blowdown wind tunnel. A wide range of spanwise Mach numbers Me (3.28 to 6.78) is covered with the help of different models

Wind tunnel simulation of multibooster separation trajectories of a launch vehicle13; [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Wind tunnel investigations were undertaken to study the separation characteristics of four strap-on boosters simultaneously separating from the core of a launch vehicle.

Annular sleeve type control valve with radial outflow for blowdown wind tunnels

open access: yes, 1978
The purpose of a pressure regulating valve in a blowdown wind tunnel is to maintain the pressure in the settling chamber constant during a run, while the upstream storage pressure in the air storage system ...
