Abstract

The problem on the flow of radiating air about a spherical segment is solved. A comparison of results obtained with investigations of the flow of a radiating gas about a sphere and the flow of gas about a spherical segment, with radiation left out of account, is made. The influence of radiation in the neighborhood of the rim of the segment on the flow in the shock layer is considered, and it is shown that it does not exert a significant influence on the fields of the gas-dynamical parameters because the latter are determined by processes occurring near the axis of symmetry, due to the phenomenon of radiation freezing.
