Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This unique resource on hypersonic slender body aerodynamics combines theoretical and application aspects in a concise and student-friendly format. Developed from class-tested materials, it features numerous worked examples, figures, diagrams, tables, and exercise problems. The content begins with the definition of slender body geometry, progressing to the analysis of flow fields and the calculation of aerodynamic and thermal loads across a range of speeds, from incompressible to hypersonic. Key topics include the Mach number independence principle and approximate theories for caret wings. The book stands out for its comprehensive coverage, allowing readers to access information in one place rather than relying on scattered sources such as proprietary wind tunnel data, flight test data, and government reports. It explores concepts such as supersonic aircraft wings, pressure distribution, atmospheric properties, hypersonic-flow characteristics, and the application of slender-body theory, including leading-edge heat transfer and drag considerations. Written in a clear and engaging style, this resource serves as an essential learning tool for undergraduate and graduate aerospace engineering students, as well as practicing engineers in aerospace research and industry. It is an ideal textbook for courses focused on slender body aerodynamics.
