Hypervelocity Air Flows With Finite Rate Chemistry

Abstract

In the first year of this program the foundation for a productive collaboration has been laid. Using the CUBRC experiments as a focus detailed design calculation for LENS flow fields about a sphere cone have been completed and reported. Considerations of PLIF and PEBF measurements have been made for LENS as preliminary studies for this program. Very encouraging results have been obtained and reported on the efficient calculation of state and energy dependent vibrational transition probabilities. Initial PLIF measurements in a small shock tunnel have been made and reported.
