Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

A very nice copy of Wind-Tunnel Technique: An Account of Experimental Methods in Low- and High-Speed Wind Tunnels by R. C. Pankhurst and D. W. Holder, published by Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons. Originally published in 1952, this substantial work was reprinted in 1965 with corrections. It provides a detailed treatment of experimental methods used in both low- and high-speed wind tunnels, covering subjects including airflow measurement, instrumentation, aerodynamic forces, boundary layers, compressible flow, calibration, turbulence, blockage, and tunnel interference effects. The 1965 issue runs approximately 700 pages. One particularly notable feature of this copy is the large fold-out illustration in the center of the book, an especially nice piece of mid-century technical book design and something that adds considerable visual interest to an otherwise highly technical volume. The book was an important reference in the development and practice of experimental aerodynamics. Pankhurst was Superintendent of the Aerodynamics Division at Britain's National Physical Laboratory from 1964–1970, and the book continued to be cited in technical literature on wind-tunnel testing and tunnel interference effects. A fascinating vintage aeronautics reference, particularly appealing to collectors of aviation and aerospace history, experimental aerodynamics, wind-tunnel technology, and classic engineering literature. Condition: Very Good. The book is clean and well preserved, with the usual minor signs of age and handling. A small, neatly written ex-libris (ownership inscription) appears on the front free endpaper; otherwise, no significant writing or markings noted. The original dust jacket is present. The price has been neatly clipped from the inside flap of the dust jacket. The large center fold-out page is present. Please see photographs for details. This copy comes from the same exceptionally well-maintained engineering collection as several other books in this group. The consistently neat ownership inscriptions and excellent preservation suggest a particularly fastidious original owner.…
