HEAT TRANSFER AND PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION ON A TWO-DIMENSIONAL BLUNTED ASYMMETRIC BODY

Abstract

Heat transfer and pressure distributions have been obtained on a two- dimensional symmetric body designed to reduce heat transfer rates at the stagnation point. Theoretical and experimental pressure distributions indicate a large reduction in velocity gradients at the stagnation point. Experimental heat transfer results at the high angles of attack (a equals 30 degrees) indicate a 15 - 20% reduction from the two-dimensional stagnation point heat transfer. Further investigation at the higher angles of attack is desirable in order to fully evaluate the capabilities of such shapes.
