Scientific paper

The aerothermodynamic characteristics of turbulent spots and wedges in a hypersonic transitional boundary layer were studied experimentally. A blunt cylindrical model was tested in a Mach 8.9 tunnel free stream at a unit Reynolds number of 47.4 million per metre. Surface heat transfer measurements were made using axial and circumferential multiple arrays of thin-film platinum resistance gauges. Time-dependent data revealed the presence of turbulent events with different intermittency levels. Conditional data sampling was applied to spot thermal footprints to acquire spot propagation speeds, planform geometry, and spatial growth at the wall. Turbulent wedge characteristics were also obtained.
