The solver combines classical techniques such as the tangent-wedge method, the modified Newtonian approach, and Prandtl\u2013Meyer expansions to evaluate pressure distributions across arbitrary geometries. Heat flux predictions are derived using similarity-based boundary-layer models, with compressibility effects accounted for through Eckert\u2019s reference temperature formulation. A key feature of HipeX is its blended boundary-layer model, which transitions from laminar to turbulent flow based on local Reynolds number. Validation against benchmark CFD data for the HEXAFLY-INT experimental configuration shows that HipeX provides reliable aerodynamic and thermal load estimates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/HISST2025_171_paper.pdf\">Read the full paper here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Vin\u00edcius HAGEMEYER CHIUMENTO, Pedro Paulo Batista De ARAUJO, Angelo PASSARO, F\u00e1bio Henrique Eug\u00eanio RIBEIRO, Lucas GALEMBECK, Johan STEELANT<\/b><\/p>\n<p>DOI Number: N\/A<\/p>\n<p>Conference number: HiSST-2025-171<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[993,3367,3361],"tags":[766,1043,513],"class_list":["post-22847","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","category-high-speed-aerodynamics-and-aerothermodynamics-with-application-to-hypersonic-regimes","category-1-hisst-2025","tag-aerodynamics","tag-aerothermodynamics","tag-heat-transfer-2","category-993","category-3367","category-3361","description-off"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22847","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22847"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22847\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22849,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22847\/revisions\/22849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22847"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22847"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22847"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
