Passive Nosetip Technology (PANT) Program. Volume X. Summary of Experimental and Analytical Results

Abstract

Results from experimental and analytical efforts performed on the Passive Nosetip Technology (PANT) program between May 1973 and December 1974 are reported. Four test programs were conducted consisting of one test series in the AFFDL 50 MW arc heater, and three test series in the Naval Ordnance Laboratory, Wind Tunnel No. 8. Test objectives and nominal results are summarized for each test series. Analysis of heat transfer and boundary layer transition data are described and changes to nosetip analysis procedures are recommended. The effect of modeling changes on nosetip response predictions are illustrated for several flight environment cases.
