Summary:

Numerical simulations of three dimensional flows in a prototype adaptive wall wind tunnel are conducted at the Mach number of 0.6 to investigate: (1) wind tunnel wall interference, (2) active streamline control by varying air removal or injection along the walls, and (3) to develop a method for establishing wall boundary conditions for interference free flows. Wind tunnel wall interference could be controlled by using only the vertical velocity components. For the configuration tested, interference free flow with solid sidewalls can be approximated by using only floor and ceiling blowing/suction.
