Development of a skin friction gauge for use in an impulse facilityTests of a prototype skin friction gauge at Mach 3.2 in a small free piston shock tunnel demonstrate the effectiveness of the design concept and the calibration against theoretical skin friction values in a simple flow. The gauge has a rise time of about 20 microsec, sufficiently short for most shock tunnel applications and approaching the rise times needed for expansion tube applications.
