Mach 6.5 Hypersonic Shock Tunnel Nozzle for Scramjet Testing

Mach 6.5 Hypersonic Shock Tunnel Nozzle for Scramjet Testing Dewey was contracted by GASL, part of ATK Tactical Propulsion and Controls, to machine this nozzle from a mandrel over 100 inches in length with an extremely tight finish tolerance of +/- 0.010 on the nozzle radius. The mandrel was fabricated using high- density polyurethane foam boards with good machining qualities. The required length was achieved by bonding cut boards with epoxy
