  • Experiments with a Pitot Rake at M = l·60

  • V. G. Quincey, J. Callinan
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    04 July 2016, pp. 793-795

  • Tests at a Mach number of 1·60 show clear evidence of interference on the end tubes of a Pitot rake whose adjacent tubes touch. This effect is increased when the rake is made into a solid rectangular slab by the addition of fillets between the tubes. By making the gap between the tubes equal to one tube diameter the interference is almost eliminated.

    The magnitude of the interference on the end tubes is considerably affected by the ratio of the Pitot orifice to the tube diameter; of the three values of this ratio tested the one close to unity (i.e. a sharp-edged Pitot) was found to have the least interference.

  • Effect of Shock Boundary Layer Interaction on Aerofoil Pressure Distributions at Transonic Speeds

  • D. Tirumalesa
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    04 July 2016, pp. 674-677

  • A method of improving pressure distributions predicted by inviscid theory over two-dimensional aerofoils at transonic speeds taking into account shock-wave turbulent boundary layer interaction as obtained in the case of the flat plate is described.

    The method was applied to a non-lifting circular arc aerofoil of eight per cent relative thickness. The shock wave location, pressure distribution and drag coefficient were calculated and compared with experimental and inviscid theoretical results.

    It has been found that the method gives results which are consistent with experimental results in various aspects.
