Abstract

A transonic similarity rule which accounts for the effects of attached sidewall boundary layers in two-dimensional wind tunnels is presented along with results of an experimental investigation of sidewall boundary-layer effects. The rule appears valid provided the sidewall boundary layer both remains attached in the vicinity of the model and occupies a small enough fraction of the tunnel width to avoid substantial three-dimensional interaction with the model.
