Book Description
This paper extends the method and results previously obtained for shock waves in 1-dimensional gas to a monatomic 3-dimensional gas. The classical Riemann problem--the flow of a gas in a shock tube--is treated as an initial value problem for the Krook equation, after the Krook equation is first reduced to two simultaneous Krook equations each for a 1-dimensional gas. Results are obtained on the formation of shocks corresponding to Mach numbers of 1.27, 1.5, and 1.75. It is seen that the stronger the shock, the shorter the formation time. The short time behavior of the flow agrees with free flow, while the long time behavior agrees with fluid dynamics. (Author).

Molecular Physics and Hypersonic Flows
Author: M. CapitelliPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400902670
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 798
Book Description
Molecular Physics and Hypersonic Flows bridges the gap between the fluid dynamics and molecular physics communities, emphasizing the role played by elementary processes in hypersonic flows. In particular, the work is primarily dedicated to filling the gap between microscopic and macroscopic treatments of the source terms to be inserted in the fluid dynamics codes. The first part of the book describes the molecular dynamics of elementary processes both in the gas phase and in the interaction with surfaces by using quantum mechanical and phenomenological approaches. A second group of contributions describes thermodynamics and transport properties of air components, with special attention to the transport of internal energy. A series of papers is devoted to the experimental and theoretical study of the flow of partially ionized gases. Subsequent contributions treat modern computational techniques for 3-D hypersonic flow. Non-equilibrium vibrational kinetics are then described, together with the coupling of vibration-dissociation processes as they affect hypersonic flows. Special emphasis is given to the interfacing of non-equilibrium models with computational fluid dynamics methods. Finally, the last part of the book deals with the application of direct Monte Carlo methods in describing rarefied flows.
High Temperature Phenomena in Shock Waves

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
The high temperatures generated in gases by shock waves give rise to physical and chemical phenomena such as molecular vibrational excitation, dissociation, ionization, chemical reactions and inherently related radiation. In continuum regime, these processes start from the wave front, so that generally the gaseous media behind shock waves may be in a thermodynamic and chemical non-equilibrium state. This book presents the state of knowledge of these phenomena. Thus, the thermodynamic properties of high temperature gases, including the plasma state are described, as well as the kinetics of the various chemical phenomena cited above. Numerous results of measurement and computation of vibrational relaxation times, dissociation and reaction rate constants are given, and various ionization and radiative mechanisms and processes are presented. The coupling between these different phenomena is taken into account as well as their interaction with the flow-field. Particular points such as the case of rarefied flows and the inside of the shock wave itself are also examined. Examples of specific non-equilibrium flows are given, generally corresponding to those encountered during spatial missions or in shock tube experiments.
