The strong coupling interactions of non-equilibrium flow, microscopic particle collisions and
radiative transitions within the shock layer of hypersonic atmospheric re-entry vehicles …

Accurate aerodynamic heating prediction is of great significance to current manned space
flight and deep space exploration missions. The temperature in the shock layer surrounding …

Prediction of hypersonic turbulent flow field with non-equilibrium thermo-chemistry around re-
entry vehicles is a challenging task. The predictions error are high due to the uncertainties in …

The convective and radiative heating to which a hypersonic vehicle is subjected during
hypersonic flight may be of comparable order of magnitude, so reasonably accurate …

A multi-physics thermochemical non-equilibrium model is established to study the flow
characteristics of the plasma sheath around an atmospheric reentry demonstrator. This …

Aiming at processes of radiation emission and absorption of high-temperature non-
equilibrium flow field gas at various energy level states, the present work extracts the flow …

The gravitational acceleration yields high speed and high energetic re-entries; therefore,
temperature values reach enormous degrees. Modelling high speed hypersonic flow such …

Abstract Effects of two different 11-species chemical reaction models on hypersonic reentry
flow simulations are numerically investigated. These two models were proposed by Gupta …

HIGH-SPEED atmospheric entry of both manned and unmanned vehicles, or missions that
use aerobraking to manipulate vehicle trajectories, can lead to high levels of radiative …

Accurate prediction of the aerothermal environment is of great significance to space
exploration and return missions. The canonical Fire II trajectory points are simulated to …
