5. CONCLUSIONS AND PERSPECTIVES
This paper highlights an overview of recent activities carried out at the VKI Plasmatron facility, where we actively extend our
experimental and numerical capabilities in the field of high-temperature material research.
The paper outlines the characteristics of three newly developed supersonic nozzles designed to extend the Plasmatron capabilities.
Additionally, it provides a concise overview of the outcomes from test campaigns conducted with the long conical nozzle and the
semi-elliptical nozzle. Several ongoing projects using the nozzles at VKI are in the pipeline but were not discussed in this article:
* The use of Si/SiC/C components, additively manufactured through Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF), tested in the
Plasmatron for their operational limits and oxidative properties.
* Utilize 3D printed Si/SiC/C in morphing applications. The project aims to develop a demonstrator which has the capability
to modify (morph) the test sample geometry during the operation of the Plasmatron high enthalpy flow.
* Define and implement an innovative testing strategy for the calibration and validation of ablation models.
* Develop a pressure plate to obtain, experimentally, the pressure distribution across the plate across the plate using the
semi-elliptical nozzle.
*
*
Simulation of flexible heat shield materials and microscale thermo-mechanical analysis.
Improvement of heat flux calorimeter.
