Method of Correcting Wind Tunnel Data for Omitted Parts of Airplane Models
A 1927 NACA technical note issued by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, a United States government aeronautics research body, and preserved through NASA's Technical Reports Server, on correcting wind tunnel measurements for parts left off scale airplane models. The single plate shows a photograph of a small biplane model, rotated on the page, mounted on a metal support strut against a pale backdrop, and a designer could take its clean, evenly lit, object-isolated studio look as a model for product shots of small mechanical forms.
