Description
Summary:This report was written in an attempt to clarify the basic factors of heat transfer applied specifically to aircraft heating and to guide the experimenter in planning experiments to obtain further data. In the absence of exact test results, the authors have studied the literature and tentatively present equations and charts for the various thermal resistances encountered in aircraft work. These recommendations will be changed as more is known about the various components of the system under consideration.
