This document provides a description of equations used to calculate test section dynamic pressure in the 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel. The equation used to calculate dynamic pressure is dependent on the test section configuration.
The Langley 14- by 22-Foot Subsonic Tunnel's data reduction software utilizes six major functions to compute the acquired data. These functions calculate engineering units, tunnel parameters, flowmeters, jet exhaust measurements, balance loads/model attitudes, and model /wall pressures. The input (required) variables, the output (computed) variables, and the equations and/or subfunction(s) associated with each major function are discussed.
