A HIGH MACH NUMBER HIGH REYNOLDS NUMBER HYPERSONIC FACILITY.

Abstract

A high Mach number (M = 14) high Reynolds number (20,000,000/ft.) facility was designed and built. This facility is capable of operating under a stagnation pressure of 30,000 p.s.i. and a stagnation temperature of 2500R. A four second running time will be available with the present design; however, the possibility of obtaining higher running time may be accomplished by increasing the air storage system. The possibility of increasing the storage air temperature is also presently being investigated. (Author)
