Oxford 3-DoF magnetic suspension and balance system: update on recommissioning efforts
- Abstract:
- This paper provides an update on recommissioning efforts currently underway for the Oxford 3 -DoF Magnetic Suspension and Balance system (MSBS), developed in the mid-1970s to measure lift, drag, and pitching moment of cones at hypersonic rarefied flow conditions representing Earth re-entry flight at high altitudes (>60 km). The balance has not been operated in approximately 20 years and requires a full restoration. A synopsis of the works underway to recommission and update the balance is provided, including the state of the cores and coils.
