AI Thread Summary
Heat transfer in fast-moving bodies can be analyzed similarly to stationary bodies by solving in the rest frame and applying Lorentz transformations. NASA's research on hypersonic re-entry provides insights into heat loading and edge heating during supersonic flight. However, the definition of temperature in accelerating frames complicates the comparison of temperatures and heat flow between different frames. Recent experiments have explored these complexities, indicating that heat transfer dynamics in fast-moving contexts remain a challenging area of study. Understanding these principles is crucial for advancements in aerospace engineering and related fields.

NASA has extensive technical knowledge of head loading during
hypersonic re-entry. Heating of various geometries of edges in
supersonic flight is in the literature.

Just as in stationary bodies.
Solve in rest frame, then Lorentz transform,

Is that true? I thought temperature was poorly defined in accelerating frames- or at least comparing temperatures between two accelerating frames was problematic- and so heat flow, which is driven by temparature gradients, would seem to be non-trivial as well.

Wasn't there a recent experiment about this?
