Wind‐Tunnel Interference Due to Model Supports

Abstract

IN Aircraft Engineering for October 1956 (p. 362) Lockwood Taylor discussed the wind‐tunnel interference arising from model supports and their guards, and gave a theoretical analysis for the contribution due to the flow curvature induced at the model and that due to the increment in longitudinal velocity (solid blockage). Both these are potential‐flow effects.
