4. Better instrumentation for heat-transfer and aerodynamic studies.
There is a great need for nonintrusive wide-area sensing devices, particularly
for temperature and pressure that can be read at high rates. The sensors or
sensing media will most likely need to be read optically to give a 2D surface
field of information at one time. This would solve a number of difficult
problems encountered using today’s technology. In particular, limitations
on sensor placement and wire routing and breaking would be eliminated.
