Generalized Boltzmann solution for non-equilibrium flows and the computation of flowfields of binary gas mixture
Hypersonic flows about space vehicles produce flowfields in thermodynamic non-equilibrium with the local Knudsen numbers Kn which may lie in all the three regimes: continuum, transition and rarefied. Continuum flows can be modeled accurately by solving the Navier–Stokes (NS) equations; however, the...
