Conjugate heat transfer between wall gasdynamic flows and anisotropic bodies

Conjugate heat transfer is investigated between wall gradient gasdynamic flows and anisotropic bodies. Because the degree of anisotropy in a body subjected to flow may be significant (from 1 to 100), the equations of conservation of momentum and energy for wall flows must include the second derivatives of gasdynamic characteristics with respect to longitudinal independent variable. Analysis of the results of conjugate heat transfer between wall gradient gasdynamic flows and anisotropic bodies with the ratio between the diagonal coefficients of thermal conductivity tensor of more than or equal to ten leads one to the conclusion about the possibility of reducing heat fluxes from gasdynamic flows to anisotropic bodies only owing to the variation of the characteristics of thermal conductivity tensor. Analysis is further performed of other results used in making a number of practical recommendations.
