Flow Quality Parameter Study Low-Speed Regime Review

The flow quality parameters study is an investigation into the importance of flow quality parameters and the current ability of wind tunnel characterization personnel to measure those parameters. The study is divided into five flow regimes, low-speed, subsonic, transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic. This presentation provides an overview of the results for the low-speed flow regime and prompts for a discussion about how to best proceed with the study.

Humidity Measurements at NASA Glenn Research Center Wind Tunnels

This presentation reviews the humidity measurements systems used at the large-scale wind tunnels at the NASA Glenn Research Center (as of July 2023), including the 9- by 15-Foot Low Speed Wind Tunnel, 8- by 6-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel, and the 10- by 10-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel. Effects of hygrometer accuracy and saturation vapor pressure model choice on Mach number are also investigated. Information in this presentation is intended for discussion with the AETC-supported Wind Tunnel Characterization Working Group during the 2023 Face-to-Face Meetings July 25-27 at NASA Glenn Research Center.
