Abstract

Wall proximity affects the accuracy of pressure probe measurements with a particularly strong impact on multi-hole probes. The wall-related evolution of the calibration of two hemispheric L-shaped 3D-printed five-hole probes was investigated in a low-speed wind tunnel. Pressure measurements and 2D particle image velocimetry were performed. The wall proximity causes the probe to measure a flow diverging from the wall, whereas the boundary layer causes the probe to measure a velocity directed towards the wall. Both angular calibration coefficients are affected in different manners. The error in angle measurement can reach 7°. These errors can be treated as calibration information. Acceleration caused by blockage is not the main reason for the errors. Methods to perform measurements closer to the wall are suggested.
