Planar laser-induced iodine fluorescence is used to map out the nonreacting mixing flowfield of an unswept ramp fuel injector using air injected at Mach 2.0 into a Mach 2.9 freestream. A fully automated test setup is used to measure time-averaged pressure, temperature, velocity, and injectant mole fraction on 21 crossflow planes and 7 axial planes. The measurement uncertainties are 5-8/100 for temperature, 4-10/100 for pressure, 10-20 m/s for velocity, and 2-3/100 for injectant mole fraction depending on the thermodynamic conditions. The measurements allow any desired gasdynamic quantity to be determined on a three-dimensional grid that spans the entire wind- tunnel test section.
