| Description | Theoretical solutions for the nonsimilar, laminar boundary-layer were computed for four points along the shuttle entry trajectory. Since the boundary layer is that region of the flow field where the effects of viscosity and of thermal conductivity are most important, numerical solutions for the boundary layer were generated using different models for the transport properties. These solutions indicate that the displacement thickness and the heat-transfer rates are very sensitive to changes in the models for thermal conductivity and for specific heat. Thus, the solutions are sensitive to the assumed transport-property model. |
