Popis: | The requirements for the accuracy of measurements in a wind tunnel test become more and more severe while the complexity of the test increases. In an environment of reduced time available for wind tunnel test and increasing test costs, it is important that the accurate calibrations and verifications of all components of the measurement chain in a wind tunnel facility are established, maintained and statistically controlled through prolonged periods of time. The paper presents the efforts undertaken to establish and maintain a system of control of the quality of measurements in the T-35 4.4 m × 3.2 m low-speed wind tunnel of the Military Technical Institute in Belgrade. The assurance of the quality of measurement in this facility is based on ensuring the quality of three main constituents: the calibration of the test section of the wind tunnel, the calibration of the instrumentation used, and the periodic tests of the standard wind tunnel models. Sample results from relevant wind tunnel calibration tests are presented and compared with the results from other facilities. The tests confirmed a good overall quality of the facility, and that the achieved quality level has to be maintained, periodically checked and systematically documented. |
