Summary

Because of the lack of reliable data on heat transfer to long bodies, measurements have been made to cone-cylinder-flares at a Mach number of 5·2. Axial heat transfer distributions were closely predicted by a modified reference enthalpy method for both laminar and turbulent flows at zero incidence and the heat transfer to the flare windward generator at incidence agreed with laminar theory.
