The heat-transfer data obtained from the model were found to correlate when the T' method of Sommer and Short was used. The increase in turbulent heat-transfer rate with a reduction in wall to free-stream temperature ratio was of the same order of magnitude as has been found for the turbulent skin-friction coefficient.

Pressure data were obtained for Mach five flows over winged re-entry configurations composed of cylindrical cabins mounted on a 60 degree sweepback delta wing with a cylindrical leading edge, clipped tips, and trailing edge flaps. The model was tested with spherical and conical fronts on the cabin, with and without tip fins, and with and without a trailing edge spoiler. Flap deflections were varied from -40 to +40 degrees and the model was pitched at angles of attack from -30 to +45 degrees for a free stream Reynolds number, based on model length of 3,575,000.
