Advanced Approaches for Heat Transfer Calculations

For the purpose of determining the heat transfer extensive experimental investigations have been carried out. Since the generally usual method of heat balance can not supply sufficiently detailed and appropriate results, three measurements procedures have been improved in such a way that the required degree of accuracy can be achieved:Surface temperature method heat flux probe application and combustion chamber pressure measurement. The results obtained from these experiments form the basis for an uncomplicated, yet precise method of heat transfer calculation. Comparisons between measured and calculated heat flux show sufficient concurrence.
