Force measurements of blunt cone models in the HIEST high enthalpy shock tunnel

  • Conference paper
Shock Waves

Summary

In the present paper, two blunt cone models with half-angles of 15 degrees were tested in a high enthalpy shock tunnel to investigate fundamental real gas effect on high enthalpy aerodynamic characteristics. The curvature radius of the nose of the models are 20 mm and 50 mm. The tests were carried out at 4MJ/kg - 14MJ/kg of stagnation enthalpy and the axial forces were measured by the force balance with acceleration compensation. The present results were compared with the results obtained by calculation of CFD. From the comparison between the experimental results and the results of CFD the real gas effect on axial force was discussed.
