Some aerothermodynamic design problems of the Space Shuttle attitude control system (ACS) were experimentally studied in a series of tests conducted at Mach number 8, at Reynolds numbers of 1,000,000and 5,000,000, using a flat plate containing interchangeable, flush-mounted nozzle cavities and lateral jet nozzles. The ACS configurations considered in this test program were a single supersonic nozzle and a cluster of four symmetrically located supersonic nozzles. Also, some preliminary results were obtained with nozzles similar to those on the flat plate used to simulate the yaw controls on a 2-percent-scaled nose section of the Convair Aerospace B-9U booster.
