HDL Hot-Core Wind Tunnel,

Abstract

The Harry Diamond Laboratories Hot-Core Wind Tunnel is an aerothermal test facility designed for use as a flight environment simulator for high-speed projectile fuzes, and as a research tool for the development of more reliable and economical fuze systems. A physical description of the facility is presented, its perormance capabilities defined, and its simulation potential established. (Author)
