Yeah, Nagoya University in Japan tested First Gundam's atmospheric reentry in a hypersonic wind tunnel.
The paper can be read here: https://www3.chubu.ac.jp/documents/facu ... 981e1d.pdf (This is what the tweet took the image from, in part 6.5.)

Re: RX-78 Atmospheric reentry tested
That's really neat, does the paper talk about what heat transfer they detected for the particular reentry angle it used?

Re: RX-78 Atmospheric reentry tested
Probably to some point, because it said the heat is cut by a certain percent with the Eureka 7 surfing pose over the hands in front pose, but since the actual paper has to be a member of the JSASS, I don't know.Underrated GM Custom wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 11:45 pm That's really neat, does the paper talk about what heat transfer they detected for the particular reentry angle it used?
