The addition of heat to the boundary layer of an insulated flat plate by means of a point heat source at the leading edge has been found to delay the transition of laminar flow to turbulence. This paper describes an experimental investigation of the variation of transition Reynolds number on a roughened flat plate model with a heat source of strength, Q, spanning the leading edge. The present problem is compared with the problem of an aerodynamically heated boundary layer on an insulated flat plate. Transition Reynolds number was found to increase with increasing S over a range equivalent to a Mach number variation of 0

Vol. 1 Pressures were measured over the surface of an unswept blunt flat plate having a cylindrical leading edge 1/2-inch in diameter. The flat plate was side-mounted in the ALOSU 12-inch continuous hypersonic wind tunnel. Separate tests were conducted with cylinders in order to obtain detailed data for the leading-edge. Stagnation temperatures were sufficiently high to eliminate condensation effects. The leading edge and cylinder pressure ratios were noted to be independent of both Mach number and Reynolds number. The flat plate pressure ratios show a small dependence on Mach number. Reynolds number effects on the plate pressure ratios were small except at the lower levels of Reynolds number where the interaction of the thickened boundary layer caused increases in pressure.

An experimental investigation of separated boundary-layer flow was conducted on a two-dimensional flat plate having a variable-span trailing edge flap in the 12-in. Supersonic Tunnel (D) of the von Karman Gas Dynamics Facility. The tests were made at Mach numers 3 and 5 at zero angle of attack and over a Reynolds number range (based on plate length) from 0.26 to 16.7 x 10 to the 6th power. Model surface pressure distributions, schlieren photographs, and velocity distributions are presented. The effects of unit Reynolds number, plate length, flap span, and flap deflection angle on the separated region are investigated, and comparisons are made with existing theory.
