Abstract

The aim of this paper is to determine the velocity profile and turbulent structure in the cross-section of the new upgraded boundary layer wind tunnel TASL1_M at the Aerodynamics and Wind Engineering Laboratory “Constantin Iamandi”, in order to compare the data series obtained for different sections, or for different inlet velocities. Our investigations were made in order to test the internal similitude properties of flowing and to be aware of the capabilities of TASL1-M.
