Abstract

A simplified test rig to simulate high-altitude environments was designed by analyzing the AEDC (Arnolds Engineering Development Center) report regarding simulated altitude testing. The test rig consists of a vacuum chamber, a supersonic nozzle connected to a cold-gas supplier and a diffuser. The preliminary tests were conducted to validate the AEDC design concepts. The test results showed that sub-atmospheric pressure(1.0psia) environments were realized inside the vacuum chamber and the design concepts were confirmed.
