Abstract:

An Aerodynamic Heating and Ablation Computer Program HEATAB is presented to establish a means by which heat transfer problems may be solved with minimum effort. This program computes the boundary layer conditions, time- temperature distribution in a body, the ablation recession rate, and weight loss. The program was written in Fortran IV for the CDC 6600 computer.
