Development of a test facility for airflow measurements in variable-density environments.

Author(s) : FRIGERIO J., SAUER H. J., FINAISH F., HOWELL R. H.

Summary

A new experimental facility that can be employed for airflow measurements in variable-density environments has been developed. The facility is designed and built to implement experimental research efforts for the second phase ASHRAE RP-698. The primary purpose of this project is to determine the influence of density variations due to temperature, pressure, and humidity changes on velocity measurements acquired by common vane and thermal anemometers. This project also focuses on increasing the understanding of the relative importance of correcting data for air density and resolving the general confusion as to the proper correction method.
