RESEARCH ON HYPERSONIC FLOWS, SEPTEMBER 1966 TO SEPTEMBER 1969.

Abstract

The research, both theoretical and experimental, was centered around three basic areas: (a) hypersonic flows, both inviscid and viscous, (b) hypersonic low density flows extending from classical boundary layer problems at low Reynolds number to conditions where the flow may no longer be considered continuum and including ionized gas problems, and (c) studies of separated flows which included details of the separation and reattachment phenomena over a wide range of Mach and Reynolds number. For the major studies which have been completed and published, brief resumes are presented detailing the important results. For the studies which are still in progress or completed only in the preliminary phases, the results obtained thus far and plans for continuation are presented. (Author)
