WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - By using the only wind tunnel capable of running quietly at "hypersonic" speeds, Purdue University engineers have conducted experiments to yield critical data for designing an ...
A Purdue University aerospace researcher helped shape plans to install a new experiment currently on the space shuttle Discovery to collect data for controlling deadly friction and heating in the ...
Scientists have placed four PV panels in a 21-meter wind tunnel and run different tests regarding tilt angles, mounting height, spacing, and incoming flow direction. They found that when the spacing ...
AMES, Iowa – From somewhere back behind the Iowa State University Icing Research Tunnel, Rye Waldman called out to see if Hui Hu was ready for a spray of cold water. The wind tunnel was down to 10 ...
Research published in the Journal of Experimental Biology has shown that flying fish are every bit as good at gliding as birds. The fish are able glide for more than 40 seconds, covering distances of ...
In this work we present laboratory measurements on the reduction of the threshold friction velocity necessary for lifting dust if the dust bed is illuminated. Insolation of a porous soil establishes a ...
NASA today successfully launched two hypersonic experiments as secondary payloads atop a NASA-built Terrier-Orion two-stage research sounding rocket from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility, Va., at 9:52 a ...
The X-51A test vehicle is expected to evolve into missiles capable of flying at Mach 6 – or six times the speed of sound – enabling them to hit mobile “time-critical” targets. Scramjets also may ...
