tunnel of the Bureau of Standards. For the purpose of a check on the foregoing experiments the ordinary wind tunnel results, furnished through courtesy of Dr. Lyman J. Briggs, were now recomputed in dimensionless coordinates and have been plotted in figure 6. The results are in close agree- ment… … Fig. 6.—Ordinary wind tunnel results. It is of interest to note the applicability of the dimensionless coordinate diagram to ordinary wind tunnel data with the consequent possibility of inferences regarding the altitude effect, or chancre in performance at the reduced densities and varying…
