Summary of Test Method4.1 Reference Direction (o, degrees) is the indicated angu-lar position of the vane when aligned along the centerline of thewind tunnel.4.2 Vane Equilibrium P

17、osition (B, degrees) is the finalresting position of the vane after motion in response to aninitial displacement. Ideally, B= o.4.3 Dynamic Vane Bias (B o, degrees) is the displace-ment of the vane from the wind tunnel centerline at 5 m/s. Thismeasurement will identify wind vanes with unbalanced aer

18、o-dynamic response because of damage (for example, bent tail)or poor design.4.4 Starting Threshold (Uo, m/s) is determined by observingor measuring the lowest speed at which the vane, released froma 10 offset position in a wind tunnel, moves toward B.Movement must be distinguishable from vibration.4

19、.5 Delay Distance (D, m) may be determined at a numberof wind speeds but shall include 5 m/s and 10 m/s. It iscomputed from the time required for the vane to reach 50 % ofthe initial displacement from 10 off B. This time in secondsis converted to delay distance by multiplying by the windtunnel speed

20、 in metres per second. Tests shall include an equalnumber of displacements to each side of B.4.6 Overshoot Ratio () may be determined at the sametime as the delay distance. The maximum angular excursion onthe opposite side of Bfrom the initial 10 displacementfromBis measured. This value is divided b

Specifications by regulatoryagencies and industrial societies (3-5) have stipulated perfor-mance values. This test method provides an unambiguousme

22、thod for measuring starting threshold, delay distance, andovershoot ratio.6. Apparatus6.1 Wind Tunnel (6):6.1.1 SizeThe wind tunnel shall be large enough so thatthe total projected area of supports, sensor apparatus, and thevane in its displaced position is less than 5 % of the cross-sectional area

23、of its test section.6.1.2 Speed RangeThe wind tunnel shall have a speedcontrol that will allow the flow rate to be varied from 0 to atleast 10 m/s. The speed control shall maintain the flow ratewithin 60.2 m/s.6.1.3 Turbulence and SwirlAcross the volume to be oc-cupied by the vane, the flow profile

24、shall vary by no more than1 % about the mean speed and shall exhibit a turbulence of lessthan 1 %. (Warning Swirl in the wind tunnel may influencestarting threshold measurements. Variations in the measure-ment of Ba low speeds likely indicate the existence of swirl.)6.1.4 CalibrationThe mean flow ra

25、te shall be verified atthe mandatory speeds of 5 and 10 m/s by use of transferstandards that have been calibrated by the National Institute ofStandards and Technology (formerly called the National Bu-reau of Standards)4or by a fundamental physical method.6.1.4.1 Speeds below 2 m/s for threshold dete

26、rminationshall be verified by a sensitive anemometer or by somefundamental time and distance technique, such as measuringthe transition time of smoke puffs, soap bubbles, or heat puffsbetween two points separated by a known distance.6.1.5 EnvironmentThe temperature and pressure of theenvironment wit

27、hin the wind tunnel test section shall bereported. Differences of greater than 3 % in the density of airwithin the test environment may result in poor inter-comparability of independent measurements of startingthreshold, delay distance, and overshoot ratio since thesevalues are density dependent.6.2

28、 Measuring System:6.2.1 DirectionThe resolution of the wind vane position-tooutput transducer limits the resolution of the measure-ments.The accuracy of the positiontooutput conversion shallbe within 60.1. (WarningAvoid potentiometer dead spotsor crossover positions while performing these procedures

29、.)6.2.2 TimeThe resolution of time shall be consistent withthe distance accuracy required. For this reason, the timeresolution may be changed as the wind tunnel speed ischanged. For example, for a distance constant measurement to0.1 m, one must have a time resolution of 0.05 s at 2 m/s and0.01 s at

30、10 m/s. If time accuracy is based on commercialelectrical power frequency, it will be at least an order ofmagnitude better than the resolution suggested above.6.3 Signal ConditioningCare shall be taken to avoidelectronic circuits in signal conditioning and recording devicesthat adversely affect the

31、apparent vane performance.(WarningTime constants in signal conditioning and record-ing devices shall be less than 0.01 s.)6.4 Recording TechniquesThe measuring or recordingsystem shall represent the 10 displacement on each side of Bwith a resolution of 0.2. One simple technique is to use afast-respo

32、nse recorder (flat to 4060 Hz or better) with enoughgain so that a vane can be oriented in the wind tunnel with Brepresented at mid-scale, and 610 of vane displacementtraversing the full span of the recorder.6.4.1 The recorder shall have a fast chart speed of 50 mm/sor more. An alternative is to use

33、 an FM tape recorder to recordthe signal. When played back at lower speed, a proportionatelyslower analog strip chart recorder yielding an equivalent50-mm/s chart speed is acceptable. Oscilloscopes with memoryand hard copy capability may also be used.6.4.2 Digital recording and data reduction system

Sampling7.1 Starting ThresholdTen consecutive tests at the samespeed m

35、eeting the test method requirement, five in eachdirection from B, are required for a valid starting thresholdmeasurement.7.2 Delay Distance and Overshoot RatioThe arithmeticmean of ten tests, five in each direction from B, is required fora valid measurement at each speed. The results of measure-ment

36、s at two or more speeds shall be averaged to a single valuefor delay distance and a single value for overshoot ratio.8. Procedure8.1 Dynamic Vane Bias:8.1.1 Set vane at tunnel centerline with no flow in the windtunnel.8.1.2 Adjust the wind tunnel to give a flow of 5 m/s.8.1.3 Measure the equilibrium

37、 vane position (B) relative tothe tunnel centerline (o). The angular difference, B ois thedynamic vane bias.8.1.4 A dynamic vane bias greater than 1 indicates poordesign or a problem with the vane. Appropriate correctionsshall be made before continuing.8.2 Starting Threshold:8.2.1 Provide a mechanic

38、al method for holding and releas-ing the vane at 10 6 1 from B. With no flow in the windtunnel, verify that the vane moves by no more than 60.5 whenthe release mechanism is activated.8.2.2 Adjust the wind tunnel to a speed expected to be lowerthan the starting threshold. Displace the vane by 10 and

39、thenrelease it by the procedure described in 8.2.1. Observe themotion of the vane, if any, and record the angle, relative to B,where motion ceases. Increase the speed slightly and repeat thetest; continue in this manner until a speed is reached where thevane moves at least 1 toward B.8.2.3 Using the

40、 speed determined in 8.2.2, displace the vaneby 10 and release it five consecutive times to one side of B,observing and recording the angle where it stops each time.Repeat five times with the displacements to the other side ofB.8.2.4 If all ten repetitions result in the vane moving at least1 toward

41、B, the wind speed may be used as the startingthreshold in accordance with this test method. The average ofthe absolute angular displacement from Bon each side shouldbe calculated. The higher of the two is the accuracy at thethreshold speed.8.3 Delay Distance:8.3.1 Set the wind tunnel speed at 5 m/s.

42、 Displace the vane10 from Band release it by the method in 8.2.1. Take fourmore samples in the same direction and five samples in theopposite direction.8.3.2 Repeat the procedure of 8.3.1 with the wind tunnelspeed set a 10 m/s.8.3.3 If desired, repeat the procedure of 8.3.1 at other windtunnel speed

43、s.8.3.4 For the ten samples taken at a tunnel speed, measurethe time from release to crossing 5 from B(or 50 % of theactual release displacement, a nominal 10) for each of thesamples. Convert each of these times to a distance by multi-plying by the tunnel speed. Average the distances to arrive at ad

44、elay distance for this speed.8.3.5 Repeat the procedure of 8.3.4 for ten samples taken ateach tunnel speed considered.8.3.6 Average the delay distances found in 8.3.4 and 8.3.5.The delay distance for each speed shall be within 10 % of thisaverage.NOTE 1If the delay distance for any speed considered

45、is outside610 % of the average, a delay distance for the vane cannot be specified.8.4 Overshoot Ratio:8.4.1 For each of the samples recorded for 8.3, read themaximum angular excursion on the opposite side of Bfromthe initial displacement.8.4.2 Form a ratio by dividing each angular excursionobtained

46、in 8.4.1 by the corresponding angular differencebetween the release angle and B.Average these ratios to arriveat the overshoot ratio for the vane.9. Precision and Bias9.1 The accuracy in measurement of the wind tunnel speedlimits the accuracy of this test method. An accuracy of 0.1 m/sis required.Th
