The Unreliable Pressure-Sensitive Paint System

Future vehicle designs will need to carefully measure the entire picture of air flow in order to reduce the consequences of unstable air. This problem is being addressed by NASA's Aerosciences Evaluation and Test Capabilities Portfolio Office (AETC). The Unsteady Pressure-Sensitive Paint System was developed by AETC in collaboration with industry stakeholders. For wind tunnel vehicle testing, this system makes use of cutting-edge technology to detect and show erratic airflows in close to real-time. The precision of the approach may be improved, and data processing is 10,000 times faster.
