Abstract
A wind tunnel test has been conducted on one-eighth scale models of the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Booster drogue parachute system. The test included an investigation of four candidate drogue deployment concepts and a parametric steady state drag study of 20-degree conical ribbon parachutes. The results show that at least two of the four deployment concepts tested are viable candidates for the full scale deployment system. The interference free steady state drag results obtained show excellent agreement with available drop test results on large 20-degree conical ribbon parachutes.
