Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

A method is described for compensating the errors of measurement of flow parameters in wind tunnels and determination of the high-speed flight parameters of aircraft. The method is based on design modifications of the measurement system sensing devices with a view toward affecting the local characteristics of flow past the total- or static-pressure intakes.
