Testing of calibration models in order to certify the overall reliability of the trisonic blowdown wind tunnel of VTI [PDF]
It is strongly recommended that wind tunnel calibrations become a regular part of the operational cycle for any wind tunnel. They facilitate tunnel-totunnel data comparisons. Standard calibration model, representing a generic winged missile configuration,

Aerofoil behaviour at high angles of attack and at Reynolds numbers appropriate for small wind turbines [PDF]
The aerodynamic characteristics of a NACA0018 aerofoil have been investigated experimentally for incidence angles ranging from 0° to 180° in closed-jet and open-jet wind tunnels with different blockage coefficients at Reynolds numbers from 60,000 to 140 ...

Contemporary frame of measurement and assessment of wind-tunnel flow quality in a low-speed facility [PDF]
The requirements for the accuracy of measurements in a wind tunnel test become more and more severe while the complexity of the test increases. In an environment of reduced time available for wind tunnel test and increasing test costs, it is important ...

Wind tunnel test study on the influence of slat end size changes in transport aircraft
For conventional layout civil transport aircraft in a low-speed and high lift configuration, the premature of the stall angle of attack causes the aircraft's approach speed to be too high.
