Inlet System for HALO outer deceleration tube inner deceleration tube air with free radicals restrictor nozzle shroud vacuum tube pylon UV-device viewport cap LIF laser-induced fluorescence • HALO = high altitude and long range research aircraft • Inlet system for LIF device(measuring radicals) principle set-up
Inlet System for HALO • The ‘Bird strike’ load case is a critical design issue for the inlet system • The inlet system must be robust enough to avoid impact of broken-off parts into the engines or the tail assembly • But if the inlet system is too stiff and totally ‘captures’ a bird (this would be the case if the restrictor is fixed to the inlet tubes) the aircraft shell can be seriously damaged
Rhizotron facility • 54 transparent tubes (each 7m long) and 108 humidity-sensors were buried in the ground of a test field. • One end of each tube is accessible through a basement-building. • Aim of the experiments: Measuring the root density and humidity conditions with cameras and radar antennas
