“…Several test campaigns with CO 2 flows have been carried out in JAXA HVST shock-tube and HVET expansion tube [4]. First efforts [33-34-35] were dedicated to high velocity Mars entry, characteristic of a Mars aerocapture, later on lower velocities [36] were investigated.…”

“…As a consequence, pure CO 2 was used for the test, since afterbody radiation is mostly produced by CO 2 . Test conditions are summarized in ADST is a high enthalpy shock-tube [4] located at TSAGI near Moscow. Some tests related to Mars entry were performed in the frame of ISTC project [42].…”

“…First, the data related to propulsion applications are presented, then experimental data obtained for Venus and Mars entry conditions are surveyed. The survey activity benefits from previous studies carried out for Mars entry [3] and shock facilities [4], as well as shock-tube data for Mars entry [5]. The available heritage from previous ESA TRP activities [6][7] has also been considered.…”

This paper focuses on a survey of experimental data related to radiation into CO2 plasma flows, which are encountered during Mars and Venus entries. The review emphasizes on VUV and IR radiation, since recent experimental efforts has been devoted to these wavelength ranges since they contribute mostly to CO2 plasma radiation. The main objective of the study is to identify the most attractive datasets for future crosscheck comparisons with the results obtained during future test campaigns with ESTHER shock-tube. The survey accounts for the results obtained in shock-tubes, expansion tube and plasma arc-jets for Mars and Venus test campaigns. The experimental results obtained for propulsion related studies have also been considered.

“…Rarefied atmospheric reentry flows are characterized by low densities, hypersonic velocities and high enthalpy. High-enthalpy shock facilities have been reviewed by Reynier [7] in 2016. The only facilities able to reproduce reentry conditions are shock-tubes, shock-tunnels, expansion tubes and hot-shots.…”

The control of the satellites end-of-life including deorbiting and atmospheric entry as well as the investigation of orbital maneuvers for new space missions confer a growing importance to the study of the hypersonic rarefied regime. While flight data are necessary for the validation of Direct Simulation Monte-Carlo numerical simulations, only a few studies and data are available for this purpose. Therefore, this article aims at gathering ground windtunnel and flight data in rarefied regime as well as their numerical reconstruction from a wide scope of space programs. A detailed analysis of these data will be presented. After a review of hypersonic low-density wind-tunnel experiments that are the main source of non-reacting hypersonic rarefied flow study cases, we address, with our own simulations, unexploited afterbody heating data from former space programs such as Mercury and Apollo. Numerically reconstructed flight data from OREX and the Space Shuttle are also considered. Finally, ionization and radiative environment are discussed through the data collected during Stardust, Fire II and RAM-C II Earth atmospheric entry.

“…The experimental validation of the computational methods for fluid dynamics is a crucial step for the development of robust and reliable tools involved in the design of aerospace missions and vehicles. Carrying on-ground experiments able to recreate the higly energetic conditions characteristic of Earth atmospheric reentry is still, to this day, a challenging task and even more when it comes to low density flows [1,2]. Hence, the performance of in flight experiments is the most valuable way of collecting all kind of data in these particular conditions.…”
