Space-shuttle windward surface laminar viscous shock-layer flows in equilibrium air at high angles-of-attack

A recently developed viscous shock-layer method (VSL81) has been applied to predict laminar viscous flows over the windward surface of a shuttle-like vehicle with a perfect gas and an equilibrium air model at high angles-of-attack to simulate reentry conditions. The predictions of wall pressure and...
