Preliminary Results Using a Rapid Photographic Wake Traverse System.

Abstract

A rapid photographic wake traverse system of the type devised by Crowder of the Boeing Airplane Company has been constructed for the 4ft x 3ft wind tunnel in order to assess the feasibility of, and design requirements for, a similar equipment to suit the 5 metre wind tunnel. Sample photographs using a gothic wing and a Harrier model with and without stores suggest the ease with which useful information can be acquired. (Author)
