A wall interference assessment and correction system
Abstract
A wall signature method has been selected to be adapted for the Ames 12-ft Wind Tunnel WIAC system. This uses limited measurements of the static pressure at the wall, in conjunction with the solid wall boundary condition, to determine the strength and distribution of singularities representing the test article. The singularities are used to estimate wall interference at the model location. The development and implementation of a working prototype will be completed, delivered and documented with a software manual.
