Description for High Temperature Phenomena in Shock Waves
Hardback. This book presents the latest understanding of high temperatures generated in gases by shock waves that give rise to such phenomena as molecular vibrational excitation, dissociation, ionization, chemical reactions and inherently related radiation. Editor(s): Brun, Raymond. Series: Shock Wave Science and Technology Reference Library. Num Pages: 337 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHDF; TGMB; TGMF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 23. Weight in Grams: 684.
The high temperatures generated in gases by shock waves give rise to physical and chemical phenomena such as molecular vibrational excitation, dissociation, ionization, chemical reactions and inherently related radiation. In continuum regime, these processes start from the wave front, so that generally the gaseous media behind shock waves may be in a thermodynamic and chemical non-equilibrium state. This book presents the state of knowledge of these phenomena. Thus, the thermodynamic properties of high temperature gases, including the plasma state are described, as well as the kinetics of the various chemical phenomena cited above. Numerous results of measurement and computation of ... Read more
