Abstract
An experimental campaign was carried out to examine the effectiveness of film cooling on aerodynamic heating at hypersonic velocities. A flat-faced cylindrical model was tested at flow velocity of 2.5 km/s in a hypersonic shock tunnel. The test model was equipped with temperature sensors for convective heat flux measurement. The coolant gas, nitrogen, was injected through a 2 mm orifice housed at the center of the test model at different pressure ratios. Two different flow regimes were observed, steady and unsteady, with the steady flowfield having overall reduction in heat transfer compared to the unsteady one.
期刊介绍:
This Journal, that started it all back in 1963, is devoted to the advancement of the science and technology of astronautics and aeronautics through the dissemination of original archival research papers disclosing new theoretical developments and/or experimental result. The topics include aeroacoustics, aerodynamics, combustion, fundamentals of propulsion, fluid mechanics and reacting flows, fundamental aspects of the aerospace environment, hydrodynamics, lasers and associated phenomena, plasmas, research instrumentation and facilities, structural mechanics and materials, optimization, and thermomechanics and thermochemistry. Papers also are sought which review in an intensive manner the results of recent research developments on any of the topics listed above.
