“…At high Mach numbers, schlieren quality may be poor because of the low density levels and density gradients. An alternate technique is to induce fluorescent flow visualization using an electron gun, thereby revealing the shock structure and characteristics of the flow field (Woods & Arrington 1972). …”

NASA Lanslev Research Center Hamit&, V i r g i n i a Abstract Flow f i e l d phenomena associated with a supersonic j e t i s s u i n g upstream i n t o a hyperv e l o c i t y flow f i e l d were investigated experimentally i n support of a new space vehicle aerobraking concept developed by Boeing f o r O r b i t a l Transfer Vehicles (OTV's). Tests were made on OTV models i n the NASA Langley 22 inch, Mach 20 helium tunnel w i t h j e t e x i t Mach numbers from 1.0 t o 6.18 and b a l l u t e h a l f angles of 450 and 60°. Force data were taken a t zero angle o f a t t a c k t o determine the effect of b a l l u t e angle, j e t Mach number and j e t flow r a t e on v e h i c l e drao. Bow shock
