A mathematical model of the wind tunnel dynamics was developed. The modelling techniques were restricted to the use of one dimensional unsteady flow. The dynamic characteristics of slotted test section incorporated into the model are presented.
A dynamic model of the National Transonic Facility (NTF) section and plenum chamber was developed. The model serves as a means for determining the dynamic performance of the NTF and the subsequent design of optimal control configurations, and is of one dimensional flow type as to facilitate computer simulation. The model allows for the simulation of the effects of test section blockage, boundary layer losses, slot flow required for supersonic flow generation, reentry flap position, and auxiliary plenum suction.
