This chapter concerns various measurement methods used in our wind tunnel:
- Model Load Measurement
- balances: various types
- design, manufacturing, equipment and calibration services)
- Model Deformation Measurement (MDM)
- Model Pressure Measurement (PSP, static pressure taps)
- Flow field survey and visualization
- PIV technique, flow direction measurement, air inlet rake, wake survey, boundary layer rake
- shockwave arrangement (shadowgraph and colour Schlieren visualizations)
- surface flow field arragement (minituff, colored oils)
- Noise Measurement
- Model Attitude Measurement (inclinometer, Qflex, optical encoders)
- Heat flux measurement
- Infrared thermography
- Thermo Sensitive Paint (TSP)
- Flux meter
- Transition tripping and visualization
- Transition tripping (carborundum and adhesive strips)
- Transition visualization
