Abstract
This study presents experimental results and its analysis results of a magnetic suspension and balance system (MSBS) for a high subsonic wind tunnel of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). A cone-cylinder model was suspended successfully up to 135 m/s flow speed and 13.4 kPa in dynamic pressure at ambient temperature. In this paper, analysis of the control characteristics employed in the tests and consideration of the aerodynamic influence are reported. From these analyses, next improvements of the control system are planned in order to apply to more high flow speed and dynamic pressure.
