Turbulence Measurements from the Army Gas Dynamics Laser Range.
Abstract
This report describes wind measurements at the US Army Missile Command on the test range for the Army Gas Dynamics Laser. Fast-response instruments for measuring three perpendicular components of the wind were attached at five levels on each of six towers. Approximately six minutes of data were recorded on each of nine magnetic tapes. A variance analysis was made for each case. Both power spectrum and Fourier analyses were also performed. It was concluded that the mean wind and its turbulent characteristics vary significantly from one end of the range to the other.
