UAE6 - Wind Tunnel Tests Data - UAE6 - Sequence X - Raw Data

**Overview**

Sequence X: Elevated RPM (F)

This test sequence used an upwind, rigid turbine with a 0° cone angle. The wind speed ranged
from 5 m/s to 12 m/s, and yaw angles of ±30° were obtained. The blade pitch angle was 3°. The
rotor rotated at 90 RPM. Blade pressure measurements were collected. The five-hole probes were
removed and the plugs were installed. Plastic tape 0.03-mm-thick was used to smooth the
interface between the plugs and the blade. The teeter dampers were replaced with rigid links, and
these two channels were flagged as not applicable by setting the measured values in the data file
to ?99999.99 Nm. The teeter link load cell was pre-tensioned to 40,000 N. During post-processing,
the probe channels were set to read -99999.99. As described in Appendix F, the hydrostatic correction derived for
operation at 72 RPM was applied to these data.
