RESEARCH ON THE DESIGN OF HYPERSONIC NOZZLES AND DIFFUSERS AT HIGH STAGNATION TEMPERATURES Part Ⅰ Design and Construction Problems of a Hypersonic Facility and Preliminary Investigations of Liquid Cooling

摘要

A hypersonic facility was designed and is being built at the Rose mount Aeronautical Laboratories to conduct research on methods of cool-ing hypersonic wind tunnel nozzles and diffusers. This facility was designed around an available 12 inch x 12 inch wind tunnel. A theoretical investigation on a Laval nozzle for M - 7 and stagnation temp¬eratures up to 3000°R was made.
