Chemical Non-Equilibrium effects in the Laminar Hypersonic Boundary Layer

摘要

In view of the importance of dissociation-recombination chemistry of a flowing air mixture to the accurate calculation of aerodynamic design data, such as heat transfer, real gas dynamics research has focused attention on the theoretical study of the chemical non-equilibrium laminar boundary layer. The present report is concerned with the basic foundations of such studies in particular, some new theoretical representations of a dissociating air mixture and a new method of non-equilibrium boundary layer solution are presented.
