| 内容記述 | Flow characteristics of NASA's 16-Inch Shock Tunnel are determined for purposes of providing hypersonic propulsion simulation capability. The key tunnel operating parameters are the incident shock speed and reservoir pressure and enthalpy. Flow characteristics of concern are the nozzle exit pressure, temperature, Mach number, Reynolds number, chemical composition, and flow uniformity. Surface mounted gages (for pressure and heat transfer) and nonintrusive optical flow diagnostics (emission and absorption spectroscopy and holographic interferometry) are used to verify tunnel conditions. Experimental measurements are used to validate computational analysis for predicting facility performance, and CFD is used to interpret the free stream optical diagnostic measurements. |
