Enhancing the test time performance of Ludwieg tunnels

Enhancing the test time performance of Ludwieg tunnels

Ground testing at hypersonic conditions requires either expensive heating or reduced test time. This paper discusses further developments to a mode of operation for Ludwieg Tunnels - Plenum Augmented Ludwieg Mode (PALM) - in the Oxford High Density Tunnel (HDT). PALM offers increased test time perfo...
