Abstract:In this paper, we investigate the boundary-layer profiles that form over a sharp, hollow cylinder in supersonic air and N 2 flows with a krypton tagging velocimetry (KTV) single-laser scheme. The supersonic flows are generated by the passage of the primary shock wave over the model in the Stevens shock tube. The experiments are performed in two gas mixtures doped with Kr: 99% N 2 /1% Kr, to model N 2 , and 75% N 2 /20% O 2 /5% Kr, to model air. The experimental setup allows us to vary the pressure and Reynolds… Show more

“…The experimental conditions in Mustafa et al. ( 2019b ) showed that KTV could be performed at static conditions similar to the T5 freestream with 99% N /1% Kr, and 75% N /20% O /5% Kr gas mixtures. Relative to Mustafa et al.…”

“…( 2019b ), the experiments described in the present work are significantly more complex due to (a) the longer standoff distance from the KTV LIF to the camera; (b) lower write-laser power, 10 mJ/pulse in Mustafa et al. ( 2019b ) versus 3–4 mJ/pulse in this work; (c) timing complexity; (d) laser-power attenuation resulting from not triggering the laser setup at the designed repetition rate of 10 Hz; (e) freestream luminosity; and, (f) scheduling complications of single-shot-per-day experiments.…”

“…Recently, simplified KTV schemes were developed and demonstrated in an underexpanded-jet configuration (Mustafa and Parziale 2018 ) and in the flow following the incident shock in a shock tube (Mustafa et al. 2019b ). These simplified schemes used 1) a single dye laser for the write step with no read laser, or 2) a dye laser for the write step and a simple, continuous-wave (CW) laser diode to help boost signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) during the read step.…”
