Summary: The effect on static-pressure measurements of locating a pitot-static tube 0.55 chord ahead of an airfoil section has been investigated. The tests were conducted in the NACA 24-inch high-speed tunnel on airfoil sections of various thickness ratios over a large range of Mach number. The results show that for a wing having a thickness ratio of 0.15 the measured Mach number, determined from a pitot-static-tube reading, is approximately 0.01 too low at a stream Mach number of 0.4 and approximately 0.03 too low at a Mach number of 0.8.

Tests were conducted in transonic wind tunnels to investigate and verify experimentally methods for aerodynamically reducing errors due to sensor position, bow-wave passage, and angle of attack. The results indicated that aerodynamics devices of simple design may be employed to reduce errors in sensing static pressure to less than 0.5 percent at Mach numbers from about 0.40 to 1.15.
