Notes on Analytical Techniques in Aerodynamic Heating Problems

Abstract

TEMPERATURE CHANGES DURING HEATING OF AN HPAG 5.0-INCH MOTOR: CORRELATION OF EXPERIMENTAL DATA WITH ANALOG COMPUTATIONS, by C. H. Johnson: Temperature data on a 5.0-inch HPAG rocket motor served to guide the set up of an analog computer model. The study was prompted by observations that temperatures in heated Sidewinder 1C motors differed appreciably depending on whether the test point was at the top, side, or bottom of the motor. DETERMINATION OF WALL TEMPERATURE-TIME FUNCTIONS USING AN ANALOG COMPUTER, by William H. Smith: The use of an analog computer to obtain solutions of the outside surface temperature of aerodynamically heated bodies resulted in a large saving over hand solutions. WHEN IS A SKIN THERMALLY THIN, by Jerome R. Katz: A method for determining skin thickness is discussed for 1, 5, and 10% variations in temperature throughout the material.
