Radiatively Driven Hypersonic Wind Tunnel

Abstract

Work conduced from August 1, 1992 until November 30,1996 under support from the Air Force Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC), followed by continuing support from the Air Force Research Laboratory through September 30,1998, established the foundation for the development of a new concept which is expected to extend the range of practical hypersonic wind tunnel testing from approximately Mach 8 to Mach 12 and beyond.
