Natural Wind

The response of vehicles to the transient forces associated with gusting of the natural wind is assuming greater prominence. Total reliance upon natural gusts is unsatisfactory since these are unpredictable and unrepeatable. Major Continental manufacturers have for several years utilized gusts produced by multiple-fan installations, the power source being either electric motors or internal-combustion engines. The M.I.R.A. equipment is centred on a single Rolls-Royce Avon gas-turbine engine, the exhaust gases from which are directed across a roadway. Measurements have indicated that the gust profiles are similar to those encountered on motorways in respect of rise-time.

Detailed Nature

The possibility of control of circulation around aircraft wings and gas turbine blades by ejection of air from the aerofoil into the main stream has drawn attention to the manifold problem. Discharge velocity distributions along the length of the wing or blade must be uniform, and it is important that the detailed nature of the flow in the supply manifolds should be understood. The distributions of velocity in manifolds supplying multicylinder internal combustion engines, in gas burners and in manifolds supplying canal locks are other allied problems.
