Abstract
To enhance hypersonic aerodynamic testing technology especially for reentering vehicles through developing understanding about the hypersonic wind tunnel nozzle flow which affects a lot estimation error to the flight characteristics and through defining the ability in predicting RCS jet interaction.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
Since it perfectly suits the requirement in calculating heavy RCS jet interaction flow field and the hypersonic nozzle flow. Useful tools such as FaSTAR is another.
Achievements of the Year
Flow inside JAXA 1.27m hypersonic wind tunnel was solved numerically. One standard deviation of change rate of the freestream dynamic pressure in the expriments was 1.3 %. CFD results required 300-700K of the uncooled block temperature (Fig.1), or 0.7-1.4mm of the gap with 300 K of the inflow temperature (Fig.2). In the future, the gap may be filled in, and the effect was investigated by CFD. The present p02/p0 variation was 0.026%. When the gap was filled in, p02/p0 variation was 0.017%. It concluded that the gap could be filled in.
