Preliminary Aeroacoustic Measurements from the AART in the NFAC 40-by 80-Foot Wind Tunnel

The primary objective: determine the aerodynamics and acoustics related to an auxiliary propulsor mounted behind an isolated wing in the National Full Scale Aerodynamic Complex 40-by 80-Foot Wind Tunnel. The primary data points match test conditions for in-flow stereo PIV measurements completed in the Ames 7x10 in 2018. The propeller consists of a Sensenich L26H commercial off the shelf blade set and hub, with a 26 inch diameter; propeller performance is measured with an internal balance integrated in the test stand. The wing is a NACA 0015 with a 12 inch chord; 58.5 inches in height for full wing configuration; 40.5 inches in height for the half wing configuration.
