Flow characterisation of transpiring porous media for hypersonic vehicles

This paper experimentally examines the internal and external flow characteristics of porous zirconium diboride (Z rB2), an Ultra-High-Temperature-Ceramic (UHTC) and a potential candidate for transpiration cooling of hypersonic vehicles. This is performed for both partially sintered material and full...
