Rarefied Flow Field About a Hemisphere Cylinder,

Abstract

This study involves the measurement of detailed flow profiles including mass flow, temperature, and pitot pressure between the body and the free stream over a hemisphere cylinder. Although such quantities as surface heat transfer, and shock standoff distance, have been previously obtained, the detailed flow characteristics have not been generally available. The present measurements have been made at various stations around the nose and on the cylindrical portion of the model.
