Abstract:

A high speed off-line data acquisition and processing system has been developed, specifically designed for intermittent wind tunnel applications including stability derivative measurements. The versatility of the system, however, permits its use in a variety of data acquisition situations. The low cost, computing capability, speed and simplicity of operation make this system particularly attractive for the acquisition and reduction of data at smaller intermittent facilities.
