A sounding rocket research flight called BOLT-2, which stands for Boundary Layer Turbulence 2, was initiated with the goal of studying hypersonic boundary-layer transition and turbulence. The BOLT-2 research vehicle is based on a three-dimensional geometry with concave surfaces and swept leading edges that provides two separate and distinct, also redundant, flowpaths for conducting measurements. One side of BOLT-2 is dedicated to smooth surface transition and turbulence, to better study the natural instability processes, whereas the other has been assigned to study forced transition and turbulence using discrete roughness trips. The present paper is intended to document the primary drivers and decisions made that lead up to finalizing the roughness-side experiment for the BOLT-2 flight.
