Study to determine effects of adding stiffener frames, frame height and spacing, and scale on aerodynamic heating characteristics of skin in missile wall; three flat plate models simulating various stiffening arrangements and one with no stiffeners were tested in 27-×27-in. nozzles of preflight jet of Langley Pilotless Aircraft Research Station; addition of stiffeners caused large pressure losses in flow along plate.
Effect of some external crosswise stiffeners on heat transfer and pressure distribution on flat plate at Mach numbers of 0.77, 1.39, and 1.98
