FAQ

What is the Wall Enthalpy?
The Wall Enthalpy is the measure of energy transfer at the surface of hypersonic vehicles, reflecting the thermal conditions experienced during high-speed flight. Wall Enthalpy is usually measured using the Joule per Kilogram for Specific Energy. Note that the value of Wall Enthalpy is always positive.
Can the Wall Enthalpy be negative?
No, the Wall Enthalpy, measured in Specific Energy cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Wall Enthalpy?
Wall Enthalpy is usually measured using the Joule per Kilogram[J/kg] for Specific Energy. Joule per Gram[J/kg], Joule per Centigram[J/kg], Square Meter per Square Second[J/kg] are the few other units in which Wall Enthalpy can be measured.
