About this book
NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930091146: Wind Tunnel Studies in Aerodynamic Phenomena at High Speed
Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)
Year: 1921
A great amount of research and experimental work has been done and fair success obtained in an effort to place airplane and propeller design upon an empirical basis. However, one can not fail to be impressed by the apparent lack of data available toward establishing flow phenomena upon a rational basis, such that they may be interpreted in terms of the laws of physics. With this end in view it was the object of the authors to design a wind tunnel differing from the usual type especially in regard to large power and speed of flow. This report describes the wind tunnel at Mccook Field and gives the results of experiments conducted in testing the efficiency of the wind tunnel.
