Heat flux augmentation caused by surface imperfections in turbulent boundary layers
Aerodynamic heating of hypersonic vehicles is one of the key challenges needed to be overcome in the pursuit of hypersonic ascent, re-entry, or sustained flight. Small, unavoidable imperfections are always present on the surface of aircraft in the form of steps, gaps, and protuberances. These can le...
