Keywords: jet interaction, hypersonic flow, planar laser-induced fluorescence (plif) thermometry, nitric oxide plif, reynolds-averaged navier-stokes simulation

The planar laser-induced fluorescence technique on the nitric oxide molecule (NO PLIF) is used to measure the temperature distribution on a 9 degree compression ramp of a two-dimensional scramjet inlet.
