e damping was large, and the natural frequency very low. When a larger Pitot tube was used with 3^-inch connections, we found at low and moderate speeds the blade impulses coining through, accompanied by an oscillation of frequency near 11 per second. At high speeds this low frequency alone (fig.… … B. Comparison of static of standard Pitot tube and wall cell; 43.3 inches of H-'mch tubing; 66 ft./sec. Time breaks, 0.03 sec. apart. Wind tunnel motor, 495 revolutions per minute. Frequency of blade impulses, 33 per second C. Comparison of static of large Pitot tube and wall cell; 43.3 inches of…
