System study of an integrated facility with arc-jet and expansion tube for hypervelocity testing with ablating spacecraft models
Ground testing for the atmospheric entry environment requires precise matching of key flow parameters. However, existing hypersonic facilities can only partially replicate some aspects of this complex environment. Plasma wind tunnels can generate continuous high-enthalpy flow, but challenges arise i...
