Test Planning Information and Requirements for Wind Tunnel Tests in the Aerospace Flight Dynamics Wind Tunnels

Abstract

To accomplish wind tunnel test programs in the Aerospace Flight Dynamics Wind Tunnels in an efficient and timely manner and to maximize test information return, it is imperative that adequate pretest planning be performed. This document has been prepared to inform the test User and Sponsor of information required to conduct a test program and the procedures followed during test conduct. A chart is presented which shows the progression of activities involved in conducting a test program. The chart, along with the other information presented herein, can be used to determine the timing for various aspects of the program, and to assist in the coordination of activities between User and Calspan personnel.
