Theory of the hypersonic viscous shock layer at high Reynolds numbers and intensive injection of foreign gases : PMM vol. 38, n 6, 1974, pp. 1015–1024

The hypersonic flow around smooth blunted bodies in the presence of intensive injection from the surface of these is considered. Using the method of external and internal expansions the asymptotics of the Navier-Stokes equations is constructed for high Reynolds numbers determined by parameters of the oncoming stream and of the injected gas. The flow in the shock layer falls into three characteristic regions. In regions adjacent to the body surface and the shock wave the effects associated with molecular transport are insignificant, while in the intermediate region they predominate. In the derivation of solution in the first two regions the surface of contact discontinuity is substituted for the region of molecular transport (external problem). An analytic solution of the external problem is obtained for small values of parameters ₁ = ρ_∞/ρs^* and δ = ρ_ω^*1/2ν_ω^*/ρ_∞1/2ν_∞, in the form of corresponding series expansions in these parameters. Asymptotic formulas are presented for velocity profiles, temperatures, and constituent concentration across the shock layer and, also, the shape of the contact discontinuity and of shock wave separation. The derived solution is compared with numerical solutions obtained by other authors. The flow in the region of molecular transport is defined by equations of the boundary layer with asymptotic conditions at plus and minus infinity, determined by the external solution (internal problem). A numerical solution of the internal problem is obtained taking into consideration multicomponent diffusion and heat exchange. The problem of multicomponent gas flow in the shock layer close to the stagnation line was previously considered in 1] with the use of simplified Navier-6tokes equations.The supersonic flow of a homogeneous inviscid and non-heat-conducting gas around blunted bodies in the presence of subsonic injection was considered in 2–7] using Euler's equations. An analytic solution, based on the classic solution obtained by Hill for a spherical vortex, was derived in 2] for a sphere on the assumption of constant but different densities in the layers between the shock wave and the contact discontinuity and between the latter and the body. Certain results of a numerical solution of the problem of intensive injection at the surface of axisymmetric bodies of various forms, obtained by Godunov's method 3], are presented. Telenin's method was used in 4] for numerical investigation of flow around a sphere; the problem was solved in two formulations: in the first, flow parameters were determined for the whole of the shock layer, while in the second this was done for the sutface of contact discontinuity, which was not known prior to the solution of the problem, with the pressure specified by Newton's formula and flow parameters determined only in the layer of injected gases. The flow with injection over blunted cones was numerically investigated in 5] by the approximate method proposed by Maslen. The flow in the shock layer in the neighborhood of the stagnation line was considered in 6, 8], and intensive injection was investigated by methods of the boundary layer theory in 8–12].
