Local temperature recovery factors have been measured on two bodies of revolution at Mach numbers of 2.0 and are shown to be independent of Mach number, Reynolds number, or body shape. The measured recovery factor is well represented by the square root of Prandtl number for laminar boundary layers and by the cube root of Prandtl number for turbulent boundary layers, as predicted by theory.

The highest flutter speeds were found in the vicinity of the angle of zero aerodynamic moment and the flutter speed increased considerably in this region with decreasing pressure. Over the rest of the pitch range, the flutter speeds were much lower and varied little with pressure.

Volume V of the High Speed Aerodynamics and Jet Propulsion series. Topics include transition from laminar to turbulent flow; turbulent flow; statistical theories of turbulence; conduction of heat; convective heat transfer and friction in flow of liquids; convective heat transfer in gases; cooling by protective fluid films; physical basis of thermal radiation; and engineering calculations of radiant heat exchange. Originally published in 1959. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
