| dc.description.abstract | A flow visualization system using smoke and a laser sheet for illumination has been designed and developed for use in the 32- x 45-inch low speed wind tunnel. Major design features include a portable smoke rake designed for ease of installation and removal, the use of fiber optics to transport the laser light in a safe and convenient manner, and a portable traversing mechanism to traverse and orient the laser light sheet. The capabilities of the flow visualization system have been demonstrated by producing qualitative photographic recordings of complex flow patterns past an airfoil model and a missile model. | en_US |
