Liquefaction of Air in the Langley 11-inch Hypersonic Tunnel

Charles H Mclellan, Thomas W. Williams

Abstract

Report presenting pressure and scattered-light measurements in the 11-inch hypersonic tunnel to determine the effect of stagnation temperature on the flow in two Mach number 7 nozzles and to determine the nature of the condensation process occurring at low stagnation temperatures. Results regarding the static-pressure measurements, Mach number effect, particle size and concentration, and general discussion are provided.
