Contents:
1. Pressure sensors -- 2. Velocity and mass flow by pressure measurements -- 3. Hot wire anemometer -- 4. Laser anemometry -- 5. Temperature measurements -- 6. Flow visualization -- 7. Measurements of aerodynamic forces.
Summary: Aerodynamic Measurements presents the most comprehensive review of the theoretical bases which experimental techniques used in aerodynamics are based on._ Limitations of each method in terms of accuracy, response time, and complexity are addressed. The book will serve as a guide in choosing the most pertinent technique for each type of flow field including: 1D, 2D, 3D, steady or unsteady, subsonic, supersonic or hypersonic._ It also describes the evolution of specific techniques from old-fashioned mechanical processes to modern computerized versions aiding students and practitioners to understand results of their findings.
