Single parachute gore segments were tested in an experimental wind tunnel having a unique 'V' splitter plate test section with a glass panel on the near side and a grid of orifices for smoke injection on the back panel. The parachute gore shape and flow patterns were viewed in cross section during the inflation process and also during changing flow conditions as would occur with rapid reduction of payload weight. Observations of flow during inflation revealed a transient internal counterflow and the formation and degeneration of several trailing vortices. Gore shapes observed compared well with those of free flight.
