NUMERICAL CALCULATION OF CHEMICALLY REACTING HYPERSONIC FLOW FIELDS

Abstract

The macroscopic equations of transport are specialized to an ideal, inviscid, non-diffusing gas. These equations are used as a model for describing plane or axially symmetric, chemically reacting hypersonic flow fields. Detailed numerical solutions are obtained by using finite difference procedures and the IBM-704 and -7090 digital computers. A description of the computer code, the results of a trial run, and some experiences with the use of the program, are presented. (Author)
