Higher Order Wind Tunnel Corrections for a Two-Dimensional Circular Arc Lifting Aerofoil in a Closed Rectangular Wind Tunnel.

摘要

A method is presented of solving the inviscid flow past a two-dimensional aerofoil in a closed rectangular wind tunnel by determining an equivalent free-air flow field containing an independent vortex. Expressions for the tunnel corrections to the incidence and free-stream speed,and to aerodynamic coefficients are given for an infinitely thin circular arc cambered aerofoil as quadratics.
