Abstract
Erosion test rigs are provided for propelling dust and/or particles at high velocity and providing variable temperature ranges, as well as methods of using and fabricating the same. The erosion test rig can propel dust and/or particles at a velocity of up to 400 meters per second (m/s) and generate wide temperature ranges (e.g., from −196° C. to 200° C.) to simulate the harsh erosive conditions of planetary environments (e.g., Mars and Luna).
