Abstract
To obtain models of the near-field wakes behind cylinders of the types
used as support structures for wind turbines, wind tunnel tests were conducted
in the Walter Beech Memorial Wind Tunnel of Wichita State University.
The tests were surveys of wakes downstream of circular cylinders and of
l2-sided cylinders. This Appendix contains the Wind Tunnel Run Log and the data obtained
from the computer during the wind tunnel tests. There are two forms of print-out depending on the instrumentation
being used--five-tube pressure probe and hot-wire anemometer.
