Hypersonic and Other Viscous Interactions. Appendix A. Three-Dimensional Viscous Interactions.
Abstract
A study has been made of transpiration cooling of typical hypersonic re-entry configurations with a primary emphasis on experimental data acquisition, although some limited analytical and numerical support studies have been undertaken. The experiments have been conducted in the hypersonic flow region, under zero and non-zero angle of attack conditions, and covering the range in Reynolds numbers required to obtain laminar, transitional, and turbulent data. Numerical and analytical studies have been performed of viscous and interacting viscous-inviscid flows with application to 3D boundary layers, wing-body configurations, and internal flow problems. In this area, the development of numerical techniques and analytical tools is of primary significance although the application of these methods to practical problems of interest has also been accomplished.
