A short-duration rocket testing technique which exactly duplicates the combustion flows of multi-engine rocket boosters at high altitudes is described. The application of this technique to the investigation of the reverse flow characteristics of a 4-engine rocket cluster model is discussed. The use of a comparatively new diagnostic tool, the electron beam density probe, in mapping the recirculating flow field of a rocket cluster is described and experimental density results presented. Finally, the use of a reflection plane for the examination of reverse flow phenomena, whereby a plane of symmetry is replaced by a solid surface on which measurements may be made,is evaluated and experimental data presented.
