Effects of porous tunnel walls on high lift airfoil testing

When a model is tested in a wind tunnel of either open or closed boundaries, the flow field around the model is modified, so that the results of a wind tunnel test do not exactly correspond to flight results. In order to obtain reliable wind tunnel data, wall corrections must be known accurately or...
