ESM Roughness Datasets (ARC)

This work focused on the effects on turbulent heat transfer due to surface roughness of types relevant to NASA entry missions, and was supported by NASA’s Entry Systems Modeling (ESM) Project. The emphasis was on new classes of woven materials, which are enabling for many missions.

Cross-Measurement Comparisons for a CFD Validation Dataset on Mach 2.5 Axisymmetric Turbulent Shock-Wave/Boundary-Layer Interactions

Experimental data for a shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction has been collected using multiple measurement techniques. Unfortunately, diversity of methods for acquisition begets an aggregation of data which does not directly quantify the same properties of the flowfield. The objective in this paper was to (a) present the collection of flowfield measurements in one venue in a format more usable for those validating CFD models against the data, (b) evaluate the degree to which the experimental data support each other, and (c) highlight the differences and relative advantages/shortcomings of each measurement techniques. To present the various measured quantities into common format, CFD results from a companion paper also submitted for presentation at this meeting are utilized. For the case where the boundary layer remains attached, there is agreement between the various measurements as well as with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation solutions. As the impinging shock strength is increased beyond the point of separating the boundary layer, the congruity of the data wanes. Generally, agreement among the measurements exceeds the degree to which the CFD solutions agree with experiments. This suggests that unmodeled physical phenomena, such as transient motion of the reflected shock and separation bubble, give rise to the discrepancies observed in the computational results.

NEWS Integrated Analysis (NEWS-IA) Dataset: Budgets and Input Data

This documentation provides a summary of the underlying physical and mathematical descriptions of the global energy and water cycle budgets used to produce the NASA Energy and Water Cycle Study (NEWS) Integrated Analysis. In addition to discussion of the budget equations, a summary is provided concerning NEWS regions, input data sources, and data fields found in the NEWS-IA input data file.
