Abstract
A new upwind, parabolized Navier-Stokes (PNS) code has been developed to compute the hypersonic, viscous, chemically reacting flow around two-dimensional or axisymmetric bodies. The new code is an extension of the upwind (perfect gas) PNS code of Lawrence et al. (1986). The upwind algorithm is based on Roe's flux-difference splitting scheme which has been modified to account for real gas effects. The algorithm solves the gas dynamic and species continuity equations in a 'loosely' coupled manner. The new code has been validated by computing the laminar flow (at free stream Mach number 25) of chemically reacting air over a wedge and a cone. The results of these computations are compared with the results from a centrally-differenced, fully coupled, nonequilibrium PNS code. The agreement is excellent, except in the vicinity of the shock wave where the present code exhibits superior shock capturing capabilities.
