Direct simulation Monte Carlo computations and experiments on leading-edge separation in rarefied hypersonic flow

A comprehensive study of the fundamental characteristics of leading-edge separation in rarefied hypersonic flows is undertaken and its salient features are elucidated. Separation of a boundary layer undergoing strong expansion is typical in many practical hypersonic applications such as base flows o...
