The Effects of Vibrational Relaxation on
Hypersonic Flow Past Blunt Bodies
Keyword(s):
SummaryThe analysis of Freeman is extended to the hypersonic flow of an inviscid, vibrationally relaxing gas past a bluff body. Expressions for the shock shape, streamline shapes and stand-off distance are derived; these expressions have been evaluated for a sphere for various values of an appropriate non-equilibrium parameter Λ.
