The success of NASA's Aeroassisted Flight Experiment project depends on the suitable placement of instrumentation on the vehicle surface and the ability of the vehicle to fly the maximum science payload. The initial aerodynamic data base was established using wind tunnel data and CFD analyses, where the influence of real-gas effects precluded the use of ground-facility data. More recently, a viscous thermochemical nonequilibrium flow analysis about the complete vehicle, including the wake, has updated the vehicle aerodynamic data base.
