Heating Distributions For Aeroassisted Vehicles
Abstract
Report discusses anticipated distributions of temperature on symmetric and asymmetric large-angle blunt nose-cone space vehicles re-entering atmosphere. Report considers three cone angles; 100 degree, 120 degree, and 140 degree. Experimental surface-temperature data obtained on specimens made of thermal-protection materials proposed for vehicles. Discusses relationship between stagnation-point heat-transfer rate and bow-shock standoff distance for cones.
