Evidence proximity, not a safety rating. This page describes what was tested and where each value comes from.
Where SAME-R’s runs sit in condition space, in the Atlas chart window. Other investigations’ runs in this regime are dimmed.
0 of 109 runs drawn · 109 runs without O₂ or pressure are not drawn.
As written in the PSI record:
Similar to the original SAME investigation, the primary objective of the SAME-R investigation was to quantify the sizes that the liquid smoke particulate achieves in low gravity and to relate the droplet size distribution to the smoke generation and smoke transport conditions in the experiment. One of the problems encountered during the SAME investigation was that after the thermal precipitators were returned to the ground, it was found that all the TEM grids were severely contaminated with some unidentified foreign particles, making these grids unusable although some of them showed shapes of certain types of smoke particles. Based on that experience the SAME-R investigation employed several modification covering new materials, extended operating conditions, and diagnostic equipments.
Computed from the 109 run rows below: what varied, what was held constant, and what was never recorded.
| Axis | State | Range | Basis | Recorded |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| O₂ | not recorded | no o₂ column in the PSI table | not recorded | 0/109 |
| Pressure | not recorded | no pressure column in the PSI table | not recorded | 0/109 |
| Flow | varied | 0.0–8.1 cm/s · 5 levels | measured | 109/109 |
Nothing from this investigation can be placed on an O₂ × pressure chart: 109 runs: no O₂ value recorded in the source row.
