Abstract
An experimental study of heat transfer rates from the test surface in an 11 m long Ludwieg Wind Tunnel was conducted. The flow prevailing in the tunnel is transient, accelerating and low subsonic. It lasts several milliseconds. Fast response thin platinum film transducers are utilized to obtain heat transfer data. The unsteady boundary layer at a given location is first laminar, then transitional and finally fully turbulent. The data for the laminar and turbulent boundary layer compare well with the results from Cohen's solution and Reynolds analogy, respectively. The test conditions include constant wall temperature (room temperature) and a cooler free stream. The measured wall heat fluxes are in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 w/sq cm.
