Abstract
Shock-heated flows of air components are studied using the state-to-state approach taking into account coupled vibrational energy transitions and state-specific chemical reactions. Effects of exchange reactions and vibrational excitation of NO molecules on the fluid-dynamic variables and vibrational distributions are evaluated; the results are compared to experimental data and direct simulations Monte Carlo; satisfactory agreement is obtained. It is shown that the effects are opposite in mixtures with and without initial admixture of NO. Whereas in NO/N2/Ar mixture the effect of NO vibrational excitation is important, in air it is negligible. Exchange reactions in air are more important than in NO/N2/Ar mixture.
