Basic rate is $350
per occupancy hour. Occupancy is based on an eight (8)
hour day, five (5) day week. Occupancy starts with test
section preparation for model installation and ends with
model removal and test section restoration. Changes to
the basic rate can be made if the test requires minimum
equipment or supervision. These changes will be provided
or proposed as requested.
- The basic occupancy rate includes the following:
- Wind Tunnel rental.
-
Data reduction - incorporates
calibration factors: up to three copies
of data in coefficient form.
-
A test report explaining the nature of
the test, test conditions, data
reduction methods used and factors
important to data interpretation.
-
Personnel to operate the wind tunnel and
associated equipment.
-
Personnel to help install and remove
model, and assist with model changes,
instrumentation checkout.
- Still photographs obtained during
the test for recording purposes.
-
For tests involving internal strain gage balances, the
basic rate plus an additional charge of $50 per hour is
required. For multiple balances, the single balance rate
will increase by $25 per hour, per each additional
balance.
-
For tests involving electronic pressure scanners, the
basic rate plus an additional charge of $50 per hour is
required.
-
For test involving the use of auxiliary air or
electrical drive systems, the basic rate plus an
