A single-component thrust balance using force sensor was investigated and applied to single module scramjet wind tunnel test.When tested in pulse combustion wind tunnel
the oscillation frequency of the balance/model/support system was about 20 Hz
and the signal is steady.The balance can meet the needs of pulse combustion wind tunnel test.Under the same test condition
the results of pulse combustion wind tunnel and long-duration high temperature hypersonic wind tunnel are similar
proving that the balance can be put into application and the results are believable.
