Ground-based test facilities are widely used to study different aspects of hypersonic flows. Ludwieg tube can produce hypersonic flow with high Reynolds number and the run time is longer than that of a shock tunnel. Konkuk University has developed a Ludwieg tube with a fast acting valve, named as Konkuk University Ludwieg Tube(KULT). To verify the performance of KULT, shock wave angle and pressure measurement were performed. The performance of KULT validated through the comparison between the experimental results and the theoretical calculation values.
