| Description | The main objective of this research is to introduce accurate fluid mechanics measurements diagnostics in the 2.2-s drop tower for the determination of the detailed flow-field at the states of extinction. These results are important as they can then be compared with confidence with detailed numerical simulations so that important insight is provided into near-limit phenomena that are controlled by not well-understood kinetics and thermal radiation processes. Past qualitative studies did enhance our general understanding on the subject. However, quantitative studies are essential for the validation of existing models that subsequently be used to describe near-limit phenomena that can initiate catastrophic events in micro- and/or reduced gravity environments. |
