An evlauation of the three-dimensional split-film anemometer for measurements of atmospheric turbulence [PDF]
A three-dimensional split-film anemometer was tested in turbulent, as well as in nonturbulent flow downstream from a wind tunnel turbulence grid. The data obtained with this probe in the turbulence behind the grid, indicated that the measured turbulence ...

Introducing instrumentation and data acquisition to mechanical engineering students using LabVIEW [PDF]
For several years, LabVIEW has been used within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Strathclyde as the basis for introducing the basic concepts and practice of data acquisition, and more generally, instrumentation, to ...

Experimental Study of an Acoustically Excited Plane Jet at Low Reynolds Numbers
The dynamics of a vertical two-dimensional air jet under acoustic excitations at a low Reynolds number are investigated experimentally. The perturbation is introduced by means of a loudspeaker located in a settling chamber before the nozzle exit.

Experimental study of two separating turbulent boundary layers [PDF]
A detailed study of two strong adverse pressure gradient flows, one with a free-stream velocity of 35 m/sec, at throat (producing a Re sub theta of 27000 at detachment) and another with free-stream velocity of 22 m/sec, at throat (producing a Re sub ...

Pines Calyx Earth Tube Performance [PDF]
In temperate climates earth tubes achieve increased comfort in summer and the pre-heating of inlet air in winter, reducing the requirement for cooling and heating. This strategy was adopted to pre-temper air entering a small conference centre building in

EU-Norsewind : Investigation of flow distortion effects on offshore instrumentation [PDF]
In 2008 the EC programme NORSEWInD kicked off with a mission to deliver high quality offshore wind speed data for the wind industry. The aim of the project is to deliver offshore wind speed data to the wind industry by measuring offshore wind speed data ...

Impact of new instrumentation on advanced turbine research [PDF]
A description is presented of an orderly test program that progresses from the simplest stationary geometry to the more complex, three dimensional, rotating turbine stage. The instrumentation requirements for this evolution of testing are described.
