Calibration of AWS instrument shelter in Langley 300 MPH 7- by 10-foot tunnel
From Summary: "Tests and calibrations of an AWS instrument shelter were made in the Langley 300 MPH 7- by 10-foot tunnel for the Signal Corps, U.S. Army. The behavior of the wind vane, the 3-cup anemometer, and the shelter cover was determined in wind speeds up to 150 miles per hour. It was discovered that the rotational speed of the anenometer was greatly influenced by the location, with respect to the wind direction, of three spacer posts that held two upper bays of instruments above the anenometer."
