Data Set
1)
How are pressures typically measured in a wind tunnel?
dynamometer
pitot probe
load cell
strain gage
2)
Where would you expect the highest pressure on an airfoil wind tunnel test at alpha=0 deg?
mid pressure surface
leading edge
trailing edge
mid suction surface
3)
What type of pressures are expected over the airfoil surface during a wind tunnel test?
static pressure
gage pressure
total pressure
suction pressures
4)
How are the pressures over the airfoil surface obtained?
pressure taps
strain gage
transducer on model
load cell
5)
The pressures over the airfoil can be integrated to obtain
Lift
Drag
Moment
All of the above
