Abstract
The design and construction of a small, transonic,
cascade wind tunnel are reported. The tunnel is of the
intermittent blow-down type, and the initial test cascade
models the flow at the rotor blade tips of a single stage
transonic compressor at a relative Mach number of 1.U-.
General programs were developed for the design of round-torectangular
transition sections and for the computation of
supersonic nozzle contours. Complete machine drawings for
the important components of the facility are included.
