| 内容記述 | The high intensity, high frequency acoustic disturbances that cause large adverse boundary layer transition effects on test models in conventional supersonic wind tunnels consist of finite length wavelets radiating from eddies in the turbulent boundary layers of the wind tunnel walls. NASA Langley has undertaken 'quiet' supersonic tunnel research that demonstrates the ability to maintain laminarity at high unit Reynolds numbers on limited upstream regions of the nozzle wall boundary layers in small, Mach 3.0, 3.5, and 5.0 pilot tunnels. The high level acoustic disturbances are then eliminated, and the transition Reynolds numbers measured on cones approach those for atmospheric flight. Attention is presently given to the design requirements that can be extrapolated from these results for a large wind tunnel facility; high quality air filtering, noise attenuation, nozzle coordinate accuracy, and surface finish, are quantified with pilot tunnel data. |
