Apparatus is described for measuring directly fluctuating lift and drag forces and steady mean drag force. These forces are exerted upon a cylinder placed so that its central axis is perpendicular to the direction of flow of water in a channel. Results are given for the stationary cylinder for the range of Reynolds number 3600 to 11 000.
