AbstractThis paper presents the results of an experimental investigation into the characteristics of boundary layer transition to turbulence in hypervelocity air flows. A series of experiments was conducted using a flat plate model, equipped with static pressure and thin film heat transfer transducers, in a free piston shock tunnel. Transition was observed in the stagnation enthalpy range of 2·35 to 19·2 MJ/kg. The transition Reynolds number correlates well with the unit Reynolds number through a simple empirical relation. The influences of Mach number, pressure and wall cooling are examined. The measured heat transfer rates in laminar and turbulent regions are compared with empirical predictions. Freestream disturbances of the test flow were also measured and analysed.
