Book Description
"The purposes of this document are (1) to provide an overview of the calibration of subsonic and transonic wind tunnels and (2) to provide a basis for commonality within the wind tunnel community in the area of wind tunnel calibration. Various standards have been developed over the years in the aeronautics industry, many of which pertain to ground testing. These standards have made it easier to share information and hardware, and have allowed the community to improve its overall effectiveness. This document, however, is not intended to set standards for wind tunnel calibration. Details of calibrating a wind tunnel vary from facility to facility according to the type of tests conducted, the operating envelope of the tunnel, and the physical constraints of the facility, which makes having a rigid definition of calibration procedures inappropriate. Instead, this document provides a set of recommended practices that the reader can use to develop a complete tunnel calibration program."--Executive summary, p. 1.

Book Description
Wind Tunnel Test Techniques: Design and Use at Low and High Speeds with Statistical Engineering Applications provides an up-to-date treatment of the topic. Beginning with a brief history of wind tunnels and its types and uses, the book goes on to cover subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic wind tunnel design and construction, calibration, boundary corrections, flow quality assessment, pressure surveys, and dynamic testing. It also focuses on wind tunnel facilities, making it useful for both the designer and operator. Engineers and graduate students in aerospace, automotive and similar programs will find this book useful in their work with experimental aerodynamics, gas dynamics, facility design and performance. - Deals with a broad range of flow speeds in wind tunnels, from low speed to high speed - Provides a discussion of similarity laws as well as material on statistical analysis - Includes coverage on facility-to-facility and facility-to-CFD correlation - Presents advanced topics such as cryogenic wind tunnels, ground simulation in automotive testing, and propulsion testing
