Abstract

The problem of flow past a thin two-dimensional wedge at high subsonic velocity in a wind tunnel with partially perforated walls is considered for low suction flow rates. The solution of this model problem may be used in determining the optimal parameters of the suction system for which the aerodynamic characteristics in the tunnel are closest to those in an unbounded stream.
