Fairings are provided to cover hypersonic air breathing vehicle to protect it from adverse aerodynamic loading and kinetic heating. Separation dynamics of fairings is an important event in the launch of vehicle. Extensive computational fluid dynamics simulations are carried out for the design of fairings and vehicle and selection of time sequences of various separation events. A ground test of fairing separation is conducted in the sled facility to check the structural integrity and functionality of various separation mechanisms and flight hardware. Simulations have been carried out to study the separation dynamics of fairings at test conditions using grid-free Euler solver to get the aerodynamic loads and the loads are integrated to get the trajectory of fairings. The aerodynamic loads are provided to verify the structural integrity of various components and the trajectory of panels is used in the test planning. The pressure distributions on the vehicle are compared with the test results.

This paper describes the test results of a stall prediction system using a transonic multistage axial compressor. The test results show that there is a clear relationship between the stall margin and the stall-warning index measured at the first stage. The stall warning index is derived from auto correlation of casing wall pressure signals above the rotor tip. In the tests, the compressor installed with pressure transducers on the casing wall near the leading edges of the first three rotors was forced to stall while operating at a constant speed by closing the discharge valve. The test results where the stator vane settings of the first three stages were changed show that load distribution among stages does not have significant effects on the stall margin vs. stall-warning index relationship. Using some smoothing technique, undesired time variation of the stall-warning index can be reduced to the level necessary for practical active stall control with allowable response time delay.
