Research abstract
The overall objective of the Phase II Follow-on program is to deploy a stereo photogrammetry system for real-time measurements of surface ablation rates in a rotating detonation engine (RDE) environment. The key milestones for the program are 1) prototype evaluation in the Detonation Engine Research Facility (DERF) using ablative test samples in an RDE, 2) assessment of the data processing software with application to windowed and/or internal geometries, 3) evaluation of the Ph2 system at the DERF, 4) correlation of ablation rates to RDE operating conditions and materials, and 5) assessment of the feasibility to correlate ablation to instantaneous and/or average heat transfer in internal flows.
