Abstract
Recent experience in the prediction and assessment of windtunnel all i nterference is reviewed. Three areas of development are identified. Th e first deals with the influence of wall boundary layers on wall-induc ed velocities in solid-wall windtunnels; the second is concerned with preparations for determining wall interference in the European Transon ic Windtunnel and the third relates to recent studies aimed at providi ng the basis for correcting data to free-air conditions.
