High Speed Smoke Flow Visualization.
Abstract
Dr. V.P. Goddard demonstrated that it was possible to use smoke flow visualization techniques, which had previously been considered the tools of the low speed aerodynamicist, in high speed and supersonic flows. This report documents a study to evaluate the techniques used by Goddard and to establish design criteria for a large high speed flow visualization facility. Included are discussions of the existing facilities at the University of Notre Dame, studies of the wind tunnel flow field and methods for smoke data acquisition. (Author)
