Abstract
The SH arp E dge F light EX periment (SHEFEX) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) has been established to demonstrate the feasibility of space vehicles with facetted Thermal Protection System (TPS). In this study, first results to the aerothermodynamic behavior of SHEFEX − II in the High Enthalpy Shock Tunnel Göttingen (HEG) are presented.The main focus is on the experimental and numerical investigation of the active cooling experiment AKTiV. The measured and calculated results confirm that a cooling effect is feasible.
