In this article, an improved algorithm of calculating the free-stream parameters in the test section of the hotshot wind tunnel is purposed. This algorithm accounts real gas effects and heat losses, by including experimental values of the flow velocity as a function of the gas exhaustion time. To obtain these data, we realized a two-beam time-of-flight method of velocity measurement.
