Calculation of Nonequilibrium Radiation of Shock Waves in the Air Using Two Models

详细

The results of the numerical modeling of the spectral radiating capacity of shock-wave-heated air are presented. Two models of nonequilibrium radiation emitted from the relaxation zone behind the strong shock wave front are used. The first model is based on Euler equations and formulated for the one-dimensional problem of kinetic processes behind the shock front. The second model is based on the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for a viscous shock layer on the nose surface of a blunt body in a hypersonic flow. The problem of the interpretation of the Fire-II flight experiment are discussed using the above-mentioned models.
