Abstract

Temperature measurements in a chemically and vibrationally frozen hypersonic laminar boundary layer have been presented. The measurements show good agreement with the predictions from a high resolution Navier-Stokes solver. The study indicates that more extensive measurements are feasible. The study of real gas effects on boundary layers can be undertaken with reasonable confidence in the pulsed laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) measurements system.
