A study was conducted to investigate the effects of wind tunnel test section noise on the location of boundary-layer transition. The study was carried out by conducting experiments on a slender, highly polished cone with an included angle of 10 deg. Wind tunnel test section noise was measured by microphones flush-mounted on the cone surface. In most of the experiments, boundary-layer transition was measured with a surface-mounted, traversing pitot pressure probe. The experiments were conducted in 23 different subsonic, transonic, and supersonic wind tunnels over a Mach number range from 0.2 to 5.5 and a unit Reynolds number range from 1.0 to 7.0 million per foot, the bulk of the data being obtained between 2.0 and 4.0 million per foot. The results show an influence of wind tunnel noise on boundary-layer transition for most of the wind tunnels. (Author)

This report presents a survey of experimental research on transition Reynolds numbers conducted in a large number of ground test facilities. Facilities surveyed included primary wind tunnels used for aerodynamic testing at subsonic, transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic conditions. Measurements have been made on cones and planar bodies, flat plates and hollow cylinders. This report traces the work using cones, which has been more extensive. The primary motivation for this research spanning nearly 20 years has been to verify the adequacy of the facilities to simulate flight conditions. This necessarily entailed the study of free-stream disturbances in wind tunnels and the role these disturbances play in altering transition Reynolds number which must be considered when scaling Reynolds-number-sensitive data. Results presented include current experimental efforts as recent as September 1976. In addition to the cited references, a bibliography of relevant publications from AEDC has been included.

Laser holographic interferometry was applied to the measurement of density profiles of two-dimensional planar turbulent boundary layers on the wall of the Acoustic Research Tunnel (ART) at the Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC). Holograms were produced at Mach numbers 0.50 and 0.65 by the finite fringe, single-plate, dual-exposure method. The reconstructed image from this type of hologram contains fringes that are shifted relative to a reference fringe by an amount that is proportional to the difference in the densities at the two points. Therefore, it was possible to determine the density profiles by measuring the fringe shifts appearing in the reconstructed images. The results of two velocity-temperature relations are presented, and compared to data obtained by pitot, hot-wire, and split-film probes. A description of the experimental facility, hardware for data acquisition, data reduction methods, and a discussion of the problems encountered in the holographic interferometry technique are presented.
