A new wind tunnel for the plane wall jet researches was constructed and examined in order to investigate the mechanism of origin of the non-uniformity in the film-cooling process. The design of the contraction, nozzle portion, settling chamber, diffuser, fans and motors is described in detail. The quantities measured with a linearized hot-wire anemometer were the mean velocity, the turbulence intensities and the Reynolds shear stress. The turbulence, as well as the mean flow, reached a selfpreserving state in which the ratio of the maximum velocity to the free stream velocity was 4.1. From the preliminary experiments, it may be right to considered that this wind tunnel has an extensive usefulness for an experimental research for the plane wall jet in the self-preserving state.
