is conducted in the test section of the wind tunnel and a complete tunnel configuration includes air ducting to and from the test section and a device

A supersonic wind tunnel is a wind tunnel that produces supersonic speeds (1.2<M<5) The Mach number and flow are determined by the nozzle geometry. The

vision system (XVS) was flight tested on a King Air at NASA Langley. This is to be followed by high speed wind tunnel tests to verify inlet performance predictions

standards of comparison between wind tunnels and improve the validity of wind tunnel tests. Among the standard wind tunnel models, AGARD model configuration

setting up a much-needed hypersonic wind tunnel at Hyderabad's Missile Complex. The advanced Hypersonic Wind Tunnel (HWT) test facility was finally commissioned

made at different scales, with hundreds of detailed drawings, plus wind tunnel tests proving the delta wing was more than satisfactory. The program was

model served as a comparable datum against the GT-R model. Initial wind tunnel tests with the GT-R model yielded a drag coefficient of Cd=0.32. As the

spacecraft materials. Project FIRE used both ground testing in wind tunnels and flight tests to test the effects of reentry heating on spacecraft materials

in Scotland and the Severn Bridge in England. The objectives of the wind tunnel studies were to demonstrate the safety of the structure under construction

Lilienthal's published data were fairly accurate for the tests he had done. Before the detailed wind tunnel tests, Wilbur traveled to Chicago at Chanute's invitation
