INVISCID HIGH TEMPERATURE HYPERSONIC FLOW OF AIR PAST POINTED BODIES OF REVOLUTION.

Abstract

The gas model and the thermodynamic equations were thoroughly checked and rederived. The equations of motion governing the flow past any object were derived with respect to an orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system, suitable for a large group of bodies of rather general shape. Boundary conditions (shock relations) were obtained for chemically frozen and for equilibrium flow. As for the solution of the system of governing equations, Dorodnitsyn's method of integral relations (direct method) was studied in general. Specializing the general method, all the necessary equations for the first approximation were derived. (Author)
