Popis: Aerodynamic shear loading tests were conducted on two different designs of the Shroud Deployment System (SDS) bladder in the RPI 24-m diameter High Pressure Shock Tube. The objective of this test was to determine the maximum aerodynamic shear load the shroud ejection bladders (series -301 and -303) could withstand before being sheared off the substructure. The bladders were subjected to impulsive loading by applying various strength shock waves. The strength of the shock waves were varied by changing the ratio of driven and driver tube pressures. The deployment bladder was mounted at the exit of the shock tube in the 200-fi3 dump tank on a double strut confIguration. The maximum total pressures at failure were 404 psi for model -301 and 475 psi for model -303 f5.25%.
