Extract

The purpose of this note is to demonstrate the application of a Flame lonisation Detector gas chromatograph for the measurement of gas concentration in short duration windtunnel facilities. The determination of gas mixing properties has many important applications in internal and external aerodynamics: for example, two phase flows in jets, film cooling and wake flow properties.
