Post-flight instrumentation hardware and data evaluation for 360L003 is summarized. The 360L003 motors were equipped with Developmental Flight Instrumentation (DFI), Operational Flight Instrumentation (OFI), and Ground Environmental Instrumentation (GEI). The DFI was designed to measure strain, temperature, pressure, and vibration at various locations on the motor during flight. The DFI is used to validate engineering models in a flight environment. The OFI consists of six Operational Pressure Tranducers which monitor chamber pressure during flight. These pressure transducers are used in the SRB separation cue. GEI measures the motor case, igniter flange, and nozzle temperature prior to launch.
