Portugal has entered the small group of countries with experimental capability in hypersonic research ...

Hypersonic flight, with speeds exceeding Mach 5, pushes the boundaries of engineering. But as vehicles slice through the atmosphere at these incredible velocities, complex interactions occur between ...

Hypersonic flow testing and measurement techniques form a critical component in advancing our understanding of high-speed aerothermodynamics. Researchers utilise a variety of specialised ...

Recent advances in hypersonic flow dynamics have underscored the critical interplay between aerodynamic forces and thermal loads experienced by high-speed vehicles. Research in this field focuses on ...

The experiment generated a hypersonic flow of around eight kilometers per second, equivalent to Mach 25, News.Az reports, ...

The Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) conducted its first hypersonic test, in which the speed reached is equivalent to "crossing mainland Portugal, from north to south, in just over five minutes," the ...

Contours of normalized temperature perturbations of optimal responses inside the boundary layer and the entropy layer, and these optimal responses may shift to another type as a change of specific ...

LISBON, Jan. 22 (Xinhua) -- Portugal has carried out its first hypersonic test under real conditions, marking the country's entry into experimental research on extreme high-speed flows, the Instituto ...

At hypersonic speeds, complexities occur when the gases interact with the surface of the vehicle such as boundary layers and shock waves. Researchers were able to observe new disturbances in ...

SAN ANTONIO – FLYING AT MACH 7? “You could have dinner in New York and be back home in time for the 10 o’clock news, in less time than it takes you to go across town on 1604,” said Chris Combs, ...
