Abstract

The computational model designed for studying the processes of non-equilibrium physicochemical gas dynamics in supersonic rarefied-air flow past a blunt plate of finite dimensions under the laboratory experiment conditions is formulated. The computational model is based on the two-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations, the energy conservation laws for the translational degrees of freedom of atoms and molecules and the vibrational degrees of freedom of diatomic molecules, and the chemical kinetics and diffusion equations for individual components of partially ionized gas flow. The basic gas dynamic and kinetic processes in flow past a blunt plate are analyzed at the Mach numbers M = 10 and 20. It is shown that regions of thermal nonequilibrium are formed.
