Cooldown Strategy for Cryogenic Wind Tunnels
Abstract
Criteria substantiated by experimental and real-time simulation data ensure optimal utlization of liquid nitrogen injected for cooling a 0.3-m transonic cryogenic tunnel (TCT). Research includes simulated cooldowns using procedures normally employed by each of several TCT operators, simulated cooldowns at constant mach number, simulated cooldowns at various constant fan speeds and cooldowns at constant metal-to-gas temperature differences.
