Governing equations for weakly ionized plasma flowfields of aerospace vehicles
Eswar Josyula,William F. Bailey +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized set of conservative equations for simulating the flowfield in a hypersonic weakly ionized gas flows is presented, including the influence of external and space charge fields and the nonequilibrium coupling of reactive and nonreactive collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibration-Dissociation Coupling Using Master Equations in Nonequilibrium Hypersonic Blunt-Body Flow
Eswar Josyula,William F. Bailey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, Park's dissociation model was used as baseline for coupling vibration and dissociation processes, and a new master equation-based depletion model was implemented to study the effect of dissociation on population depletion in the vibrational states of the nitrogen molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive and nonreactive vibrational energy exchanges in nonequilibrium hypersonic flows
TL;DR: In this article, the generalized depletion equations, considering state-to-state kinetics of dissociating nitrogen, were solved to predict the extent of vibrational depletion for 4000 and 6000 K. Two different vibrational transition rate sets were used in the depletion analysis.
