ASTOVL (advanced short takeoff vertical landing) aircraft test laser develpment. Phase III hot gas ingestion study of ground-effect flow-field on such aircraft during hover or vertical landing
A spectrally resolved Rayleigh/Mie scattering diagnostic was developed to measure temperature and wingspan wise velocity in the vicinity of an ASTOVL aircraft model tested in the Lewis, now Glenn, 9x15 Low Speed Wind Tunnel. This was done for the Phase III hot gas ingestion study of ground-effect flow-field on such aircraft during hover or vertical landing.
