Abstract :
A six-component force-measuring balance for impulse wind tunnels is described. The application of semiconductors for force and acceleration measurement, and their mechanical and electronic coupling for the desired operational outputs are given. The dynamic calibration procedures are explained and verified for the conditions encountered in hot-shot-type wind tunnels.
