Abstract

The basic laws of viscous homogeneous gas flow at high supersonic speeds past smooth blunt bodies with a permeable surface are investigated within the framework of the thin viscous shock layer model. An efficient numerical method of solving these equations, which makes it possible to consider cases of flow past bodies at angles of attack and slip, when there are no planes of symmetry in the flow, is proposed. Some results of calculating the flow past a triaxial ellipsoid with an axial ratio of 103n7∶3 at angles of attack α=0−45° and slip angles β=0−45° over a broad interval of Reynolds numbers are presented as an example. The effect of the principal determining parameters of the problem on the flow structure in the shock layer and the surface friction and heat transfer coefficients is analyzed. An expression for calculating the heat fluxes to the impermeable surface of smooth blunt bodies in a supersonic homogeneous viscous gas flow over a broad interval of Reynolds numbers is proposed on the basis of the solutions obtained and the results of other authors.
