Effects Of Blowing Ratios On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Fu-Jung Chen Jun 1995

Effects Of Blowing Ratios On Heat Transfer To The Throat Region Of A Porous-Walled Nozzle, Fu-Jung Chen

Theses and Dissertations

The effects of transpiration cooling on heat transfer in the throat region of a porous-walled nozzle were investigated. The experiments were performed in the AFIT low speed shock tube fitted with a Mach 2 nozzle. A blowing region was limited to the area from 1.3 cm prior to the throat to 1.2 cm downstream of the throat. The blowing ratios from -0.0002 (suction) to 0.0117 (blowing) of the main stream flow were studied. Heat flux data were taken from both sides of the nozzle. One side was transpiration cooled by secondary air injection through a porous wall, while the other …
