12 Laser Spectroscopy and Electron Beam Excitation
(a) EBF visualisation showing the electron
beam
(b) Comparison between computed and measured
density profiles
Fig. 12.11 Measurements by detection of X-ray radiation in a Mach 10 flow in the R5Ch wind
tunnel at ONERA, Meudon (© ONERA)
on a flared-cylinder configuration. The beam passes through the model (through a
small tube) to avoid the intense production of X-rays that would result from the electron beam impact on a metallic surface. The density profiles obtained in the shock
wave boundary layer interaction region are compared with Navier-Stokes and DSMC
calculations in Fig. 12.11b.
