Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The gasdynamic structure of rarefied argon jets is studied in the range of stagnation temperatures of from 290 to 5200 °K using the electron-x-ray method. The effect of the temperature factor on different zones of the jet is shown and the reorganization of the flow pattern with a change in the mode of flow from continuous to free-molecular is analyzed.
