Computational study of hypersonic rarefied gas flow over re-entry vehicles using the second-order Boltzmann-Curtiss constitutive model
The aerothermodynamics of re-entry vehicles vary significantly upon re-entry, descent, and landing, because of the drastic changes in atmospheric density and velocity. In highly rarefied regimes, the conventional Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations may not provide an accurate prediction of aerothermod...
