Brief description of the Royal Aircraft Establishment intermittent supersonic wind tunnel plant

K. G. Winter (1957)

Characteristics of aft mounted all-moving rectangular control surfaces on a slender cruciform model at Mach numbers from 0.6 to 2.8

K. G. Winter; Susan M. Mills (1966)

The wings are of delta planform, with aspect ratio of exposed pairs of panels 0.31, and total span of 2.5 times the diameter of the body, which is of fineness ratio 19. The rectangular controls, of span equal to that of ...

Comparative tests of thick and thin turning vanes in the royal aircraft establishment 4 X 3-ft wind tunnel

K. G. Winter (1947)

The tests were made by replacing the existing centre six thick vanes at the first corner of the 4 x 3-ft wind tunnel by vanes of sheet metal. The thin vanes reduced the-corner loss, estimated from a wake traverse behind ...

Experience with a steady-state heat-transfer technique in a large wind-tunnel

K. G. Winter; L. Gaudet; T. G. Gell (1975)

The Report covers the design and development of a plant for pumping a liquid through a model so as to control its temperature, the design and manufacture of the model, and the development of the heat-flow meters used in ...

Loads on a model during starting and stopping of an intermittent supersonic wind tunnel

K. G. Winter; C. S. Brown (1957)

Measurements of pressure distribution on a half-model wing-body combination of 55 deg. sweep over a wide range of reynolds number

K. G. Winter; J. B. Moss (1975)

Measurements of section pressure distribution at a mach number of 2.0 on a wing of 70 degrees sweep mounted on a waisted body

K. G. Winter; K. G. Smith (1968)

The measurements were of pressure distribution at one section of the wing and along the wing-body junction of a half model. The wing was of STAC 11 section (12 per cent thick normal to the leading edge and of roof-top ...

Measurements of skin friction on a cambered delta wing at supersonic speeds

K. G. Winter; K. G. Smith (1965)

Summary. The measurements, using razor blade surface pitot tubes, show that the relatively mild pressure gradients and streamline convergence on the wing have a large effect on local skin friction. Application of the ...

Methods of determination and of fixing boundary layer transition on wind tunnel models at supersonic speeds

K. G. Winter; J. B. Scott-Wilson; F. V. Davies (1955)

The R.A.E. 4-ft x 3-ft experimental low-turbulence wind tunnel. Part II measurements of turbulence intensity and noise in the working-section

H. Schuh; K. G. Winter (1951)

Measurements are given of the turbulence in the working-section together with measurements of the noise. With all the screens fitted in the tunnel, the intensities of lateral components are of the same order as the ...

Requirements for uniformity of flow in supersonic wind tunnels

D. E. Morris; K. G. Winter (1955)

The Royal Aircraft Establishment 4 ft x 3 ft experimental low turbulence wind tunnel. Part 1 general flow characteristics

H. B. Squire; K. G. Winter (1948)

The 4 x 3 ft Wind Tunnel was erected as a model of larger tunnels to investigate unconventional design features directed towards obtaining a high standard of flow. Diffusers of 5 deg cone angle are used, except for the ...

Studies of the turbulent boundary layer on a waisted body of revolution in subsonic and supersonic flow

K. G. Winter; J. C. Rotta; K. G. Smith (1968)

Summary. The object of the study was to determine the influence of Mach number, pressure gradients and streamline convergence and divergence on the development of turbulent boundary layers. Measurements were made of pressure ...

Tables of characteristics slopes for use in the design of nozzles for supersonic wind tunnels

K. G. Winter (1957)

The use of an araldite coated iron casting as a liner for a supersonic wind tunnel

C. S. Brown; K. G. Winter (1957)

The use of surface pitot tubes as skin-friction meters at supersonic speeds

K. G. Smith; L. Gaudet; K. G. Winter (1962)

Experiments have been made, in supersonic turbulent boundary layers, on a simple type of surface pitot tube, formed by cementing a piece of razor blade over a static-pressure hole. This type of surface pitot tube has great ...
