Abstract
This investigation was conducted to verify and explain,
if possible, the increase in total temperature found
in shock diamonds as discovered by previous investigators
This report was limited to the burning of kerosene-air
and hydrogen-air combustion mixtures, at pressure ratios
from 1.6 to 3.0 and burner temperatures from 200 degrees to 1450 degrees F.
All total temperatures were recorded by chromel-alumel
thermocouples 5 total and static pressures were measured by
pitot and pitot-static tubes.
