The influence of shock speed variation on radiation and thermochemistry experiments in shock tubes

Shock tubes are a crucial source of experimental data for the aerothermodynamic modelling of atmospheric entry vehicles. Notably, many chemical-kinetic and radiative models are validated directly against optical measurements from these facilities. Typically, the incident shock speed at the location...
