Hello,

Has anyone looked into the effects of moisture/humidity on heat-transfer in air? Specifically, for high speed flow (Mach 1 and above) situations. I'm evaluating heater requirements for a device that deploys around Mach 5. So far, I've only looked at dry air conditions. I'm now interested in assessing the effects of moisture on the cooldown rate of the device during reentry. If anyone knows where I might find information about this subject, I'd appreciate your help. Thanks.
