Boundary layer transition detection on the X-15 vertical fin using surface-pressure-fluctuation measurements
A flush-mounted microphone on the vertical fin of an X-15 airplane was used to investigate boundary layer transition phenomenon during flights to peak altitudes of approximately 70,000 meters. The flight results were compared with those from wind tunnel studies, skin temperature measurements, and empirical prediction data. The Reynolds numbers determined for the end of transition were consistent with those obtained from wind tunnel studies. Maximum surface-pressure-fluctuation coefficients in the transition region were about an order of magnitude greater than those for fully developed turbulent flow. This was also consistent with wind tunnel data. It was also noted that the power-spectral-density estimates of the surface-pressure fluctuations were characterized by a shift in power from high frequencies to low frequencies as the boundary layer changed from turbulent to laminar flow. Large changes in power at the lowest frequencies appeared to mark the beginning of transition.

Forebody and vertical stabilizer effects on directional stability of a reusable LOX/RP (061) booster AR 12161-2
Results are presented of a wind tunnel test on the directional stability of space shuttle booster configurations. The test was conducted at the 14-inch trisonic tunnel starting 6 December 1971 and continued through 11 December 1971 for a total of 66 occupancy hours. Configurations tested included a cylindrical body with two axisymmetrical noses, one with and without canopy, one delta wing, located in two positions, five vertical tails (including a V tail), two having split rudders, ventral fins, two sets of chines, three airbreathing engine pods, and rocket engine shrouds. The model scale was 0.003366.

Influence of vertical drift of small scale ionization inhomogeneities on the diurnal variation of f0F2
The diurnal variations of the critical frequencies of the ionospheric F2 region may be influenced substantially by the 12-hour component of the vertical drift of small-scale ionization inhomogeneities. The appearance of the forenoon maximum of F2 and the evening ionization maximum are examined.

The use of high frequency infrared radiometry for remote atmospheric probing with high vertical resolution
The necessity of obtaining soundings of temperature and water vapor content of the lower troposphere with sufficient vertical resolution to determine the exchange of heat and moisture between the surface and the atmosphere is discussed. The means for solving the problem will be emission measurements in the high frequency end of the thermal infrared. The means for solving another problem is supplementary scanning with high area resolution.
