This paper deals with the design of an experiment devoted to MHD flow control, to be performed in CIRA GHIBLI hypersonic facility. The aim of this work is to define the proper test conditions and to design and realize the model that will be tested in the facility. Numerical simulations have been carried out in order to have a preliminary estimate of the ionization degree and of the heat fluxes over the test article. Moreover the MFD code from Bologna University has been used in order to calculate the expected interaction effect, under the assumption of low Rem. Finally, the design of the test article has been carried out.

Abstract
This paper deals with the design of an experiment devoted to MHD flow control, to be performed in CIRA GHIBLI hypersonic facility. The aim of this work is to define the proper test conditions and to design and realize the model that will be tested in the facility. Numerical simulations have been carried out in order to have a preliminary estimate of the ionization degree and of the heat fluxes over the test article. Moreover the MFD code from Bologna University has been used in order to calculate the expected interaction effect, under the assumption of low Rem. Finally, the design of the test article has been carried out.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
