The Electrostatic Probe: Some Applications to Hypersonic Flow Diagnostics

reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD0706492 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Results of an experimental investigation of the applicability of electrostatic cylindrical probes for flow field diagnostics are presented. An experimental extension of the formulation of the free-molecular collisionless operation of cylindrical probes into the transitional and continuum regime is provided.
