Two-dimensional transonic wind-tunnel wall interference corrections based on the Euler equations

A procedure for the evaluation of wall interference corrections for two-dimensional models is presented. The Mach number and angle-of-attack corrections require the numerical solution of the Euler equations. Pressure measurements are required near the wind tunnel walls. The correction procedure also requires knowledge of the free-stream Mach number, the model geometry, and the lift force experienced by the model. The residual interference not accounted for by the Mach number and angle-of-attack corrections is estimated.
