A system to measure flow moisture content in hypersonic wind tunnels

摘要

The technique and equipment is described which is used for obtaining data on the moisture content in two NASA Langley Hypersonic Wind Tunnels. A detailed description of the sampling system and its operation is presented along with the moisture analyzer used. The procedure used for converting dew point to parts of water per million by volume (ppmv) is included with graphs that show tunnel moisture content at various pressures.
