Special Features of Using N2O For Heating of The Test Gas in A Hot-Shot Wind Tunnel

摘要

The study of heat and mass supply in gas-dynamics models with combustion involves the necessity of modeling not only aerodynamic criteria of similarity (M, Re, St, etc.) but also natural values of stagnation pressures and temperatures, since the conditions of self-ignition of the fuel, heat release in time and space, and chemical reaction rate depend significantly on P(sub 0) and T(sub 0). These or similar conditions can be obtained in short-duration facilities, in particular, hot-shot wind tunnels.
