THE past few years have witnessed a growing interest in the measurement of unsteady heat
transfer phenomena. This increase in interest is due to the need and desire to understand …

ONE of the key factors for the aerodynamic design of hypersonic flight vehicles involves the
consideration of surface heat loads. The process of laminar to turbulent boundary-layer (BL) …

Boundary layer transition on a 7 deg half-angle cone at zero angle of attack was studied in
combination with disturbance level measurements in the Hypersonic Ludwieg Tube of …

With a combination of various pressure and heat flux sensors mounted on a range of probes
the disturbance level of a Mach 6 Ludwieg tube is determined and characterized. Wide …

The flow over a finite-height cylinder of aspect ratio H: D= 2: 1 has been studied by means of
oil-film visualization, pressure and heat flux fluctuation measurements. The measurements …

The so-called Atomic Layer Thermo Pile (ALTP) is a well established sensor in the field of
infrared laser beam diagnostics. The working principle of this sensor is based on the …

Проведено сравнение результатов измерений теплового потока на плоской пластине,
обтекаемой сверхзвуковым потоком с числом Маха 6, выполненных двумя датчиками с …

Die in dieser Arbeit entwickelte, neuartige Plasmaquelle TIHTUS setzt sich aus einem
lichtbogenbeheizten Triebwerk mit konvergent-divergenter Düse und einer …

Controlled localized perturbations are generated to analyze the transition mechanism in
hypersonic flow. The experiments are performed at the Hypersonic Ludwieg Tube (HLB) at …

ANOVEL two-stage electric thruster TIHTUS is currently under development. The first stage
is an arcjet, and the second stage inductively heats the arcjet plume. Because of the …
