Study of Iron and Stony Meteorite Ablation Based on Simulation Experiments in an Arc Heater

To observe meteorite ablation, simulation experiments were conducted on the L5 ordinary chondrite and IAB-MG iron meteorites in an arc-heated facility and three flight conditions were reproduced. To mimic the high heating rates and the significant shear stress that meteorites experience during Earth...
