HEAT TRANSFER TECHNIQUES AND MEASUREMENTS IN THE DOUGLAS AEROPHYSICS LABORATORY HYPERVELOCITY IMPULSE TUNNEL,

Abstract

The report presents the theory, fabrication, calibration, and data reduction procedures for thin-film resistance thermometer and calorimeter-type heat transfer rate gages. Included, also, is a section on experimental measurements and experience covering the following topics: development of a correlation parameter for stagnation point heat transfer measurements based on Fay-Riddell theory; estimation of the accuracy of experimental measurements; discussion of the effects of flow contamination on heating rates; and comments on heat transfer instrumentation used in the HIT.
