HYPERSONIC AXISYMMETRIC WAKES INCLUDING EFFECTS OF RATE CHEMISTRY

Abstract

The present work deals with the behavior of the uniformpressure far field wake. The flow is treated as a continuum, by the boundary-layer approximations, utilizing integral method techniques. Chemical rate processes of air relative to atommolecule dissociation and to ionization are taken into account.
