From Wind Tunnels to Flight Vehicles: Visualization and quantitative measurements supporting NASA’s space program
Abstract
NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion Crew Module have been studied in wind tunnels using the planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) technique for flow visualization and quantitative thermometry and in flight using high-resolution imagery and quantitative infrared surface heating measurements. This paper reviews both types of measurements. OCIS codes: (120.1740) Combustion diagnostics; (300.2530) Fluorescence, laser-induced; (110.3080) Infrared imaging.
