The purpose of this research is to determine the calibration constants of the wind speed measurement systems required to calculate the wind tunnel velocity in the test section. In the present work, the aerodynamic calibration tests of the test section were conducted in the Agency for Defense Development's Low-Speed Wind Tunnel. The test speed ranged from 10 to 100 m/s with a reference pitot-static pressure probe. The validity of the calibration results was evaluated by comparing them with the previous calibration constants. The calibration results show that fair to good agreement is obtained with resonable accuracy.

Conceptual study of an open-circuit type low-speed wind tunnel for performance test of wind turbine blade and airfoil is conducted. The tunnel is constituted of a settling chamber, a contraction, closed test section, a diffuser, two corners, a cross leg and a fan and motor. For the performance test, the closed test section width of 1.8 m, height of 1.8 m and length of 5.25 m is selected. The contraction ratio is 9 to 1 and maximum speed in the test section is 67 m/sec. Input power in the tunnel is about 238 kW and its energy ratio is 3.6. The wind tunnel designed in present study will be an effective tool in research and development of wind turbine and airfoil.

A wind tunnel test of 29.7% scaled model of NASA Common Research Model was performed in small low speed wind tunnel. The wind tunnel model was fabricated in Aluminium in consultation with NASA Langley Research Center and AIAA Drag Prediction Workshop committee members. The static aerodynamic forces and moments were measured at a relatively low Reynolds number of 0.3 × 10⁶ due to tunnel capability limitations. Pitching moment of three types of model support(Fin sting, Blade sting and Belly sting) were compared. The pitching moment for corrected Belly sting and Fin sting were similar. The result of pitching moment for Blade sting was very small.

NREL Phase VI 12% 축소모델을 사용한 표준풍력터빈 풍동시험은 2006년에 1차 시험이 수행되었다. 1차 풍동시험은 복합재 블레이드를 사용하여 표준조건(설치각 3도)에 대해 수행되었으며 블레이드 표면상태에 따라 측정값이 영향을 받는 것을 파악하였다. 2007년 4월에 수행된 2차 풍동시험은 표면상태의 영향을 보다 정확히 파악하기 위해 알루미늄 블레이드를 사용하여 시험을 수행하였으며, 블레이드 제작 정밀도에 따른 영향을 파악하였다. 낮은 레이놀즈 수 영역(저속영역)에서는 블레이드 표면상태 따라 토크 값 다르게 나타나며, 블레이드 끝단 부근의 제작 정밀도는 최대 토크 이후의 영역에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 0.1mm 이내의 정밀도로 제작된 모델의 경우 NREL 시험결과와 전체적인 형상이 유사하게 나타나며, 축소효과에 의한 영향으로 최대토크는 약 25% 정도 감소현상을 보이고 있다.

The paper deals with the computational approach in analysis and design of pantograph panhead strips of high-speed railway in aerodynamic and aeroacoustic concerns. Pantograph is an equipment such that the electric power is supplied from catenary system to train. Due to the nature of complexity in high-speed fluid flow, turbulence and downstream vortices result in the instability in the aerodynamic contact between panhead strips and catenary system, and consequently generate the considerable levels of flow-induced sound. In this paper, based on the preceding low speed wind-tunnel test and simulations, the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics in low speed are analyzed.

In this paper, we summarize the results of free drop wind tunnel test, separation analysis and flight test in order to verify the safety during the separations of an external fuel tank and the LAU-131 rocket launcher from XKO-l. The wind tunnel test was conducted to show the safety in free drop of the stores and to gather the trajectory data for fine tune of MSAP(Multi-body Separation Analysis Program). The enhanced MSAP was then used to predict the trajectories of the stores with and without the ejector forces. A correlation of MSAP results for free drop case was also made to show the safety of jettison with the free drop type bomb rack. Moreover, the flight test was conducted. and its results were compared to analysis results. Finally, the safe jettison boundary was determined from the flight test.

The Magnus effect measurement apparatus was designed and built for spinning wind tunnel model which would simulate the rotation of projectiles. Prior to the high speed test, the ground functional test and the low speed test were carried out in the Agency for Defense Development's Low Speed Wind Tunnel(ADD-LSWT) at spin rates from about 6,000 to 10,000 rpm. Magnus force and moment were measured on the spinning projectile model at velocity of 100 m/s. It was shown that the Magnus force and moment were linear function of spin parameter. The test results were compared with Magnus test run on the same configuration in the Arnold Engineering Development Center's Propulsion Tunnel 4T(AEDC-4T).

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was performed under low-speed wind tunnel test conditions using a 29.7% scale model of the NASA common research model. A wind tunnel test was conducted to measure the aerodynamic coefficient of the CRM with Belly sting model support configuration at a low Reynolds number of 0.3×106 and it was compared with the aerodynamic coefficient of CFD analysis. In order to verify the validation of the analysis, a computational analysis under the conditions of the advance research was performed and compared. The interference effect of the Belly sting model support affected not only the fuselage but also the main and tail wings.
