Experimental Investigation of Discrete Heat Transfer Measurement Techniques for Tunnel A Applications

摘要

Experimental heat transfer tests were conducted to evaluate several testing and data reduction techniques that had potential for improving the quality of heat transfer data obtained. The wedge used in this investigation was instrumented with several types of heat gages and two thin-skin sections. Data were gathered in an interference flow field by mounting a disturbance generator on the surface of the wedge. Tests were conducted at Mach 3 and free-stream Reynolds number of 3.8 million/ft. Wedge angles varied from 0 to 25 deg. (Author)
