Description
Summary:Several advances were made under this task during FY15, the first year of this effort. A portion of the task effort focused on HIFiRE-5. For this work, new capabilities in ground test and in flight data analysis were developed. Also, as a necessary precursor to wind tunnel tests on boundary layer transition on the leeside of a cone at angle of attack, extensive computations were undertaken to understand the zero angle of attack instability behavior. Although not directly related to the topic of boundary layer transition, final analysis of the HIFiRE-1 shock boundary layer interaction experiment was completed.
