Influence of corrugation-roughness shape on aerodynamic heating in thick turbulent boundary layersThe results of an experimental program to evaluate the effects of wave shape on heat transfer and pressure distributions of corrugation roughened flat plates in thick turbulent boundary layers are presented. The wave shaping effects studied were wavelength, wave amplitude, and wave radius. The experimental program consisted of tests in the sidewall boundary layer of the Langley Continuous Flow Hypersonic Tunnel at a Mach number of 10.3 and Reynolds numbers from 1.3 to 8.2 x 10 to the 6th per meter. The effects of wave shape are analyzed, correlated and compared with previous data obtained in both thick and thin boundary layers. The correlations include the effects of a large range of geometric, inviscid flow, internal boundary layer, and bulk boundary layer parameters in supersonic and hypersonic flow.
