Flow temperature measurement



Reduction of results of Сх and Cy measurement in wind tunnels to flight conditions
Curves Cmax (Reb) , obtained at various flow turbulence levels E, are reduced to the single curve, corresponding to flight conditions (E = 0) at application of an effective Reynolds number (Reeff)
Recr - critical Reynolds number of laminar-turbulent transition
Reex - experimental Reynolds number
Selection of shape and dimensions of a drainage hole for reduction of static pressure measurement error.
Measurement error ?P = Pmeas - Preal is reduced practically to zero at application of a hole countersinking with coning angle ? = 100° and dimensionless countersinking depth h/d ~ 1
