APPLICATION OF TENSOR EQUATIONS IN COMPUTATION OF THREE DIMENSIONAL VISCOUS FLOW

The tensor viscous shock-layer equations are used for computing thehypersonic viscous flow over sphere-cone and ellipsoid-cone with angle of attack. The results show that the method can be applied to compute the flow over a complex geometry. The none-quilibriurn chemical reactions of hypersonic flow are considered, the chemical reactions are assumed to proceed at finite rate.
