Abstract
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has constructed the JAXA practical pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) measurement system for their large industrial wind tunnels. Its system and application tests were introduced. Contents of the system which included PSP paint, pressure calculation method and apparatus were described. A high accuracy pressure calculation method, a priori/in situ hybrid method, was also introduced and applied to the data processing. For validating this PSP system, an experiment using an ONERA M5 standard model was conducted in a transonic wind tunnel. PSP results represented global quantitative pressure distribution. The PSP data accuracy, 2σ, of the system compared with pressure taps was 1.9 kPa (Cp = 0.06 at M = 0.84). Then, the JAXA practical PSP measurement system was applied to the Japanese regional jet development test. Its results also represented a detailed and global flow structure on the test model. 2σ of PSP data was Cp = 0.06 at cruising condition. It was proved that the present PSP system could be applied to practical tests at a large industrial transonic wind tunnel.
