Among the different existing methods to characterise the aerodynamic sealing effect provided by an air curtain device placed over the opening between two contiguous compartments, infrared thermography has revealed to be a very useful tool. Besides allowing the capture, in an expedite way, of instantaneous images of the temperature field in the neighbourhood of the door, the technique hereon described has other ...
Calibration and measurement procedures implemented to work with a seven-hole directional pressure probe in the mapping of pressure and velocity wind tunnel flows are reported in this paper. The performances of two different methods used to derive the flow characteristics (direction and magnitude of flow velocity vector and total and dynamic pressure) from the seven pressure values measured by the probe, are com...
