Blockage Correction and Reynolds Number Dependency of an Alpine Skier: A Comparison Between Two Closed-Section Wind Tunnels

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of blockage effect and Reynolds Number dependency by comparing measurements of an alpine skier in standardized positions between two wind tunnels with varying blockage ratios and speed ranges. The results indicated significant blockage effects...
