Further Evaluation of a New Facility Concept for Testing Large Ablation Models at High Stagnation Pressures
Abstract
The report presents the results of the third phase of an investigation to determine the feasibility of extending ablation test facility capability by surrounding the high enthalpy flow with a coaxial cold jet. The technique was applied to the 5-MW arc heated facility at pressures up to 80 atm. A variety of data probes and models were used to determine flow-model interactions. Final results show that the technique simulates flow satisfactorily over very large ablation models.
