Abstract:A fundamental theory of the local heat transfer disturbances in supersonic and hypersonic shock / laminar boundary-layer interaction zones is given, based on an asymptotic nonadiabatic triple-deck model that is formulated using the reference temperature method combined with a total enthalpy form of the energy equation. Analytical and numerical results are presented and compared with experimental heat transfer data for compression corner-generated interactions. The predictions of the theory provide strong suppo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
