Structure of Shock Waves with Emission in a Gas Flow Impinging on a Barrier

摘要

The parameters of emitting shock waves generated upon high-velocity rarefied-gas flow impingement on a plane barrier are investigated with account for the reflecting capacity of the barrier. In the case of aluminum plasma impingement the unsteady radiation-gasdynamic flows are numerically calculated using the Lax-Wendroff scheme at different values of the radiation reflection coefficient. The radiation transport is accounted for in the gray gas approximation. In the quasi-stationary stage the structure of compressed shock layer on the wall is considered in the radiant heat conduction approximation.
