Calibration of Wright Field Pitot Static Tube
Wind tunnel tests have been carried out in the Aberdeen Bomb Tunnel to calibrate a specially designed high speed pitot static tube which is to be used in calibration of the Wright Field Ten Foot (High Speed) Wind Tunnel. Static and total pressure readings were checked for M's from .2 to .86 and at M = .86, up to an angle of attack of 5 degrees. Within the experimental accuracy of the tunnel calibration, the static pressure reading of the pitot tube was equal to the static pressure of the air stream at the static hole location. No shock waves around the pitot tube were observed at any of the test M's. (Author)
