Heat flux and skin friction on surface of a cone in supersonic flows

This report will look at analytical methods to calculate skin friction and heat flux on a cone. This will be done by assuming the flow to be either purely laminar and turbulent to provide information regarding these two basic cases. CFD will then be done in a similar fashion. This is toward the end...

Description
Summary:This report will look at analytical methods to calculate skin friction and heat flux on a cone. This will be done by assuming the flow to be either purely laminar and turbulent to provide information regarding these two basic cases. CFD will then be done in a similar fashion. This is toward the end of preparation for wind tunnel experiments.
