Heat Transfer in Separated Hypersonic Gas Flows at Moderate Reynolds Numbers
RESUMO
Separated hypersonic flows of rarefied gas over a flat plate with a vertical barrier and over a comer of compression are investigated at Reynolds numbers Re Ј 1.5·104. A kinetic approach (solution of the Boltzmann equation) and a continuum approach (solution of the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE)) are used. It is shown that in solution of the kinetic problem the point of separation is located more downstream, than in the NSE case. When using slipping boundary conditions for NSE the nonmonotonous change in the distribution of heat flux over the surface takes place in the preseparation region of flow; the peak value of the heat flux distribution is more obvious in the solution of the kinetic problem.
