Research abstract
THE FEASIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE LIMITS OF TRANSPIRATION COOLED NOSETIPS, (TCNT'S) USING A WARM GAS COOLANT WILL BE INVESTIGATED. SUCH CONCEPTS HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF COMBINING THE RELIABLE MAINTENANCE FREE COOLANT SUPPLY OF EXISTING GAS-JET NOSETIP CONCEPTS WITH THE RELATIVELY PREDICTABLE PERFORMANCE AND ANGLE-OF-ATTACK CAPABILITIES OF WATER COOLED TCNT'S. THE PRESENT INVESTIGATION WILL INCLUDE DEVELOPMENT OF CONCEPTUAL DESIGNS, PERFORMANCE PREDICTIONS, AND ASSESSMENT OF FABRICATION FEASIBILITY/COSTS.
