Just curious about the effect on scale versus Reynolds numbers on
testing a 1/42 scale model airship in a windtunnel. Using the Reynolds
number that I was able to calculate, the speed was not going to be
approachable in the windtunnel. Just wondering if there is anyone with
a bit of insight into the reliability of using the scale versus using
the Reynolds numbers.
