Abstract

The steady hypersonic flow over a double ellipsoid is numerically investigated for two nonreacting inviscid cases at Ma = 8.15, one reacting inviscid case at Ma = 25 with the freestream conditions taken from standard atmosphere at 75km and one nonreacting viscous case at Ma = 8.15 and Re = 1.27 × 106. For the last two cases an error estimation is performed by means of global mesh refinement.
