Laboratory #1: Force Measurements in a
Subsonic
Wind Tunnel
A data
report only
is
required for this laboratory. Please carefully follow the instructions
for data
report formats.
Additional Instructions
After the airfoil (2-d) data listed
in the lab manual are acquired,
but before you go on to the wing (3-d) measurements, do the following.
Acquire another set of lift and drag measurements for the last flap
deflection
angle, but for a wind speed roughly 60-70% of the value you used
originally.
Make the
measurements at the same angles of attack used in the
original
data. Treat this data in the Results section as you would
all the
other
data acquired in the lab.
Questions
Your report must also include answers to the following questions in
the appropriate
sections.
