AN INVESTIGATION OF THE STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS OF HOT-WIRE PROBES

摘要

Hot-wire probes are very slender structures, and as a result they are prone to excessive transverse oscillations during flow measurements. This structural vibration control problem may be approached from the point of view of suggesting geometric changes to locate the resonance frequencies of the structure in a favorable configuration. Sample results presented here indicate that significant improvements are possible. This paper represents a progress report of an ongoing research.
