The pressure reading from the hand-held probe should NOT be multiplied by 0.1 like it says in the lab sheet (cut and paste error from last year's lab sheet). We used a different pressure sensor this year. This 10x factor really doesn't matter, since you are looking for the location of the zero reading. All this will do is move the decimal point on your dimensionless Cp plot by one place. If you have already generated the plots, there's no need to redo them. - Mark Drela From drela at MIT.EDU Fri Dec 3 23:19:37 2004 From: drela at MIT.EDU (Mark Drela) Date: Fri, 03 Dec 2004 23:19:37 -0500 Subject: [Unified-mailman] Problem F15 Message-ID: <41B13AD9.6020504@mit.edu> I found a sign typo in problem F15. Corrected version is here: http://web.mit.edu/drela/Public/UE/f15.pdf Sorry for the screwup. As compensation, here's a hint: Using the polar coordinate forms will be MUCH simpler for parts 1, 2. At the bottom I also added some math definitions as help. - Mark Drela From drela at MIT.EDU Sat Dec 4 11:37:37 2004 From: drela at MIT.EDU (Mark Drela) Date: Sat, 04 Dec 2004 11:37:37 -0500 Subject: [Unified-mailman] Problem F15 Message-ID: <200412041637.iB4GbbQk006094@orville.mit.edu> I found a sign typo in problem F15.
