Development of Measurement Methods for Application to a Wind Tunnel Test of an Advanced Transport Model
… wall proximity. Utilizing a thermocouple boundary layer rake, wall measurements within 0.0025 inches of the surface have been made. A Cross Correlation Rake (CCR) has the advantage of not requiring calibration but obtaining the same proximity and resolution as the thermocouple boundary …

Study of Far Wake of a Surface-Mounted Obstacle Subjected to Turbulent Boundary Layer Flows
… body), approximately of height equal to the boundary layer thickness at one of the measurement locations of the flow. The experiments were performed by varying the Reynolds number of the flow and manipulating the pressure gradient distributions using a NACA 0012 airfoil placed within the wind …

Mean Flow Characteristics and Turbulent Structures of Turbulent Boundary Layers in Varying Pressure Gradients and Reynolds Numbers
Turbulent boundary layers flowing over a smooth surface were studied to understand the influence of varying pressure gradients and flow Reynolds number on the boundary layer growth and mean turbulent properties. The test was conducted in the Virginia Tech Stability Wind Tunnel with a 0.914 m chord …

Numerical and experimental investigation of VG flow control for a low-boom inlet
… application of vortex generators (VGs) for shock/boundary layer interaction flow control in a novel external compression, axisymmetric, low-boom concept inlet was studied using numerical and experimental methods. The low-boom inlet design features a zero-angle cowl and relaxed isentropic …
