    This technical report presents the design of an open-jet, blow-down wind tunnel that was newly commissioned in the anechoic chamber at the ISVR, University of Southampton, UK. This wind tunnel is intended for the measurement of airfoil trailing edge self-noise but can be extended to other aeroacoustic applications. With the primary objectives of achieving acoustically quiet and low turbulence air jet up to 120m/s through a 150mm x 450mm nozzle, several novel noise and flow control techniques were implemented in the design. Both the acoustical and aerodynamic performances of the open jet wind tunnel were calibrated in detail after its fabrication. It is found that the background noise of the facility is adequately low for a wide range of exit jet velocity. The potential core of the free jet is characterised by a low turbulence level of about 0.1%. A benchmark test by submerging a NACA0012 airfoil with a tripped boundary layer at zero angle of attack into the potential core of the free jet was carried out. It was confirmed that the radiatingaerofoil trailing edge self-noise has levels significantly above the rig noise over a wide range of frequencies. The low noise and low turbulence characteristics of this open jet wind tunnel are comparable to the best facilities in the world, and isbelieved to be the first of its kind in the UK

    This paper presents the design and performance of an open jet, blow down wind tunnel that was newly commissioned in the anechoic chamber at the ISVR, University of Southampton, UK. This wind tunnel is intended for the measurement of airfoil trailing edge self-noise but can be extended to other aeroacoustic applications. With the primary objectives of achieving acoustically quiet and low turbulence air jet up to 120 m/s through a 0.15 m × 0.45 m nozzle, several novel noise and flow control techniques were implemented in the design. Both the acoustical and aerodynamic performances of the open jet wind tunnel were examined in detail after its fabrication. It is found that the background noise of the facility is adequately low for a wide range of exit jet velocity. The potential core of the free jet is characterized by a low turbulence level of about 0.1%. Benchmark tests by submerging a NACA0012 airfoil with tripped and untripped boundary layers at 0° and 10° angles of attack respectively into the potential core of the free jet were carried out. It was confirmed that the radiating airfoil trailing edge self-noise has levels significantly above the rig noise over a wide range of frequencies. The low noise and low turbulence characteristics of this open jet wind tunnel are comparable to the best facilities in the world, and for its size it is believed to be the first of its kind in the UK

    This study aims to determined the relationship arm muscle strength, limb muscle explosive and movement coordination with coordination with swimming speed bracelet on students PENJASKESREK at Serambi Mekkah University. The population in this studied were all student PENJASKESREK at Serambi Mekkah University. Based on the purposive sampling technique, the samples totaling 30 students who had passed the T.P. Basic Swimming and T.P. Advanced Swimming. Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that arm muscle strength gave a relationship of 0.52 to the speed of breaststroke swimming in students, limb muscle explosive gave a relationship of 0.44 to the speed of breaststroke swimming to students, movement coordination gave a relationship of 0,42 with the speed of breaststroke swimming to students. The concluded that arm muscle strength, limb muscle explosive and movement coordination were related by 0.79 with the breaststroke swimming speed on Students at Serambi Mekkah University. So the hypothesis that the author proposed was accepted as true

    Acquisition and processing of backscatter data for habitat mapping - comparison of multibeam and sidescan systems

    No full text
    Often marine habitat surveys use multibeam bathymetry systems to model the seafloor. This describes the morphology but not the terrain lithology or substrate. Backscatter imagery helps the interpreter to better classify the physical environment that may support a particular biological community. In this contribution, the acquisition performance of both multibeam and sidescan sonar backscatter imagery are contrasted and examples shown. The logistical factors affecting the two systems during surveying are discussed and data from both systems compared.Choice of systems for habitat mapping is discussed. A relative cost analysis of the various survey systems is presented with varying resolution and coverage. The size and shape of the footprint, and thus resolution, is variable dependant on many factors, including ship speed, data processing and sampling. The resolution and formation of imagery is important, but high sampling rates are shown not to be a complete solution as over-sampling can present a false impression of high resolution. However, it is suggested that backscatter imagery should have least 7 bit sensitivity to aid visual and digital inspection. Habitat mapping examples are shown using multibeam backscatter and sidescan sonar, where the processing has been optimised for backscatter imagery. A key question is how much of high resolution bathymetry data is essential for habitat mapping, and whether backscatter imagery can provide more of the information required at a higher resolution than a bathymetric morphology map
