The present paper describes the aerothermal tests ground facilities used at Ariane Group for the development and qualifications of space Thermal Protection Systems and
Hypersonic vehicles. The different experimental facilities and test configurations are described as well as their potential applications to the requirements. An incremental
test logic is exposed. High Temperature measurements techniques are described in order to describe the behavior of the samples during tests.
