Short summary
In this article, we present the measurements of local aerodynamic sectional characteristics on a full-scale rotor blade with a novel add-on instrumentation comprising a wake rake, a pressure belt, and a five-hole Pitot tube. In general, the demonstration of this instrumentation opens a range of promising new options for optimizing airfoil sectional performance in its real operating environment, e.g., the size and position of vortex generators.
