Kang, S W; Levatin, J L

Unsteady boundary-layer flow equations characterizing hot, burning environments are solved numerically by means of a factored ADI method under transient and/or streamwise varying core-flow conditions. Calculated results for compressible, turbulent flow cases show that high heat fluxes at the wall due to turbulence and changing edge conditions may bring about severe temperature increase at the wall, causing melting and hence erosion of the surface itself.
