Institution National Aerospace Laboratory NLR Date 1985-04-30 Abstract The applicability of a multi-velocity-component static pipe, proposed by CALSPAN ATC, for measuring boundary velocity vector distributions in behalf of wall interference assessment, has been explored in two-dimensional flow. Comparisons with alternative methods to derive the local flow angle from measured pipe pressures as well as analyses of associated wall corrections for a solid- and slotted-wall test section show that this "CALSPAN Pipe" is, potentially a very useful instrument. The arrangement of the, here applied, pressure measurement technique should be improved, however.
