Analysis of air radiation measurements obtained in the EAST and X2 shocktube facilities

Abstract:

This paper presents measurements of equilibrium radiation obtained in the NASA Ames Research Center’s EAST facility and the University of Queensland’s X2 facility. These experiments were aimed at measuring the level of radiation encountered during conditions relevant to Orion lunar return into Earth’s atmosphere. The facilities have targeted the same nominal test conditions of 10 km/s and 26.6 Pa (0.2 Torr). In addition, variations on the nominal shock speed have also been the focus of recent...
