Adiabatic Wall Temperature in Boundary Layer Equations for Hypersonic Flow Formulas

The Adiabatic Wall Temperature is the temperature at the surface of an object in hypersonic flow, where the heat transfer is zero and the flow is in equilibrium. And is denoted by T_wall. Adiabatic Wall Temperature is usually measured using the Kelvin for Temperature. Note that the value of Adiabatic Wall Temperature is always positive.
