Abstract

We present a model for the effects of scale, via molecular momentum and heat diffusion phenomena, on the generation and propagation of shock waves. A simple parametrization of the shear stresses and heat flux at the wall leads to the determination of new jump conditions, which show that, for a given wave Mach number at small scales, the resulting particle velocities are lower but the pressures are higher. Also, the model predicts that the flow at small scale is isothermal and that the minimum wave velocity can be subsonic.
