A model experiment to study the effect of atmospheric turbulence on sonic booms is reported. The model sonic booms are N waves produced by electric sparks, and the model turbulence is created by a plane jet. Of particular interest are the changes in waveform, peak pressure, and rise time of the model N waves after they have passed through the model turbulence. A review is first given of previous experiments on the effect of turbulence on both sonic booms and model N waves. This experiment was designed so that the scale factor (approximately 10−4) relating the characteristic length scales of the model turbulence to those of atmospheric turbulence is the same as that relating the model N waves to sonic booms. Most of the results reported are for plane waves. Sets of 100 or 200 pressure waveforms were recorded, for both quiet and turbulent air, and analyzed. Sample waveforms, scatter plots of peak pressure and rise time, histograms, and cumulative probability distributions are given. Results are as follows: ...
