Figure 43. The friction velocity is shown versus the free stream reference velocity in the<br />

wind tunnel which is taken at a height <strong>of</strong> 0.22 m for the North S<strong>and</strong> (Soil #2). In<br />

addition, the data is fit with linear fits to correlate free stream in the tunnel with a friction<br />

velocity for each soil.<br />
