Previous NASA studies of landing human-scale payloads on Mars have concluded that supersonic retropropulsion (SRP), or using multiple retrorocket engines beginning at supersonic descent conditions, is an enabling technology. DSS is partnering with the Aerosciences Evaluation and Test Capabilities (AETC) office to conduct a SRP test in the Langley Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel (UPWT) to quantify the SRP prediction capabilities of multiple computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solvers for a range of model configurations, thrust magnitudes, and tunnel conditions.
