MODIFICATION OF A DAMPOMETER FOR USE WITH A FREE-OSCILLATION DYNAMIC RIG

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4314633· OSTI ID:4314633

Presented at the Eighth Meeting of the Supersonic Wind-Tunnel Assoc., Seattle, Wash. Oct. 1957. The Dampometer represents a harmonically damped oscillation by a rotating vector in such a way that the length of the vector is proportional to the damping. The device was designed for use with a forced oscillation dynamic testing, and its modification for use with a free oscillation rig is described. (T.R.H.)
