ABSTRACT:
A cooled nosetip arrangement for a vehicle designed to travel at hypersonic velocities is taught herein. We provide a nosetip having one or more orifices at its forwardmost location, but instead of utilizing an arrangement for expelling a liquid coolant, which would necessitate a considerable amount of plumbing and tankage, we utilize a novel gas generator arrangement enabling a coolant gas to be selectively generated and then expelled from such nosetip orifice(s). In this manner we utilize a coolant that advantageously remains in a chemical form until it is to be actually utilized.
