Introduction A. A. ~ro~its~’ s method of integral relations 111 has proved to be effective in the solution of systems of non-linear partial differential equations of mixed type. Equations of this kind describe, in particular, supersonic flow about blunt bodies when a shock wave leaves the surface of the body. Over the course of a number of years a method has been developed at the Computational Centre of the USSR Academy of Sciences with the help of integral relations to calculate the flow about plane ;Llid axisymmetric blunt bodies of different shanes [zI - [4]. A certain amount of experience has been acquired in the solution of such problems. A large number of calculations have been done, and various solution schemes have been examined. In this article we shall discuss particular features of the application of the method to this problem, we shall construct a more rational calculation scheme for flow about blunt bodies in a supersonic stream of a perfect and real gas, and we shall al so give some results of the calculations to illustrate the potentialities of the schemes. We shall not give here the gas dynamical analysis of the results we obtain. A detailed review of the method of integral relations has been made in [51. The method of integral relations has proved to be suitable for the calculation of flow from an outgoing shock wave firstly because it enables the direct problem to be solved in an exact form, i. e. the flow near the given body to be constructed. Despite their relative simplicity. the inverse methods of [1;3 -181and other works, which construct the body +

corresponding to a given shape of shock wave, are troublesome in that the problem of determining the body from the shock wave is improper, that the computational process is unstable, and that difficulties r.:ise in calculating bodies of specific shapes (particularly for bodies with sharply changing curvature, or with a break). Further, with the I.:ethor: of integral relations the solution is found with a different degree of accuracy from a series of approximations, where in each approximation the complete picture of flow in the region of influence is formed, This makes it possible to estimate the accuracy of the calculations, and when we have insufficient info~ation about tire equations themselves or about the coefficients in them (which happens, for example, when the effects of a real gas are taken into account), calculation using approximations enables us to select appropriately the necessary number of approximations. In serial calculations, it is sufficient only to perform separate (control) variants with a large number of approximations. And, finally, we note that the programs for doing these calculations on high-speed computers are quite simple with this method, do not require a large machine store and the same program can be used to calculate flow about plane and axisymmetric bodies of various shapes (smooth, with a break in curvature, in the contour) in a supersonic flow of Perfect or real gas. Thus, the method we have developed enables us to examine the problem of the flow about bodies with an outgoing shock wave as a whole, from the same standpoint.

to such a body under a zero angle of attack. It is required to calculate the mixed turbulent flow in the region of influence bounded by the shock wave, the axis of symmetry, the surface of the body and the boundary characteristic (or characteristics) passing between the wave and the body. The complete system of equations describing this phenomenon consists of partial differential equations (written in divergent form), ordinary differential equations and finite relations. As we know, the initial partial differential equations are replaced in the method of integral relations by some approximating system of ordinary differential eqnations. It is sensible to introduce into the initial system of equations its kno;ill integrals (1 ike the Rernoull i integral, etc.) so that we can reduce the number of partial differential equations, reduce the amoun.t of computation and also facilitate the solution of the boundary problem for the approximate system. It is necessary to bear in mind that tile introduction of integrals at once into the approximation system can 1 ead to incorrect results. For the independent variables it is most convenient to use orthogonal coordinates s, n, where s is the length of arc measured along the contour of the body, n is the normal to the body (Fig. 1). This system can be used tJOth for bodies with a smooth contour and for bodies with a sharply curved Eontour, as well as when there are corners. In this system of coordinates, the boundary conditions on the body and the integral relations themselves are written in their most simple form. In addition, it is easy to transfer from one shape to another, and this enables t!ie calculation to be done for a wide family of bodies using the same proto gram. The system s, R is also convenient in the use of the results calculate the boundary layer and heat exchange. It is sometimes advisable to introduce coordinates s, < or 4, n, where < = n/E(s), ~1 = s/sl(n). Here n = 0 is the equation of the contour of the body, n = E(S) the equathe equation of the boundary charactertion of the sl,ock wave, s = s,(n) istic. If only one of the four boundaries of the region of influence in the coordinates s, < is curvilinear, then in the system <, q the region The polar system of coordinates I-, of integration becomes rectangular. for the calculation u which we used before in [31, [41 is less suitable of bodies of a complex shape. ;,s we noted in [51, in choosing the direction of approximation it is necessary to start from the nature of change of the functions in various directions and the possibility of representing them by interpolation formulae of a given form. Moreover, it is necessary to bear in mind that the values of the functions in the direction of inte&ration of the approximate sys;en are obtained more exactly than in the direction of their approximations. In the case examined, multinomial interpolation formulae using the values of the functions on the boundaries of the

strips were used. In the framework of the same approximation it is possible to make the results somewhatmore exact by using the derivatives on the boundaries of the region in the interpolation formulae, as was done, for instance, in [91. Such approximations increase the accuracy of the approximations without essentially complicating the approximating system, al though at the same time the accuracy of the next “ordinaryn approximation is much higher. Introducing dimensionless quantities from now on, we shall relate the velocity w to the ~~irnurn value of the velocity w,.,, the density p to the density of the incident stream pm, the pressure p to cmwz,X, the temperature T to 7~’ I SW, the specific enthalpy ii to the drag enthalpy 1: = 70’ /2 thewiiecific entropy I‘? to .%mf2, the linear dimensions &‘%e chz:cteristic dimensions of the body (for example, to half the middle transverse section of the body). Jtere .%‘, = S/m,, where .!8 is the universal gas constant, IQ, the molecular weight of the gas in the incident stream. We note that it is not suitable to relate the pressure and density to the corresponding drag quantities UP to the shock wave, as was done in [31, since behind the shock wave some dimensionless quantities do not remain bounded when the value of the Mach number of the incident stream I&, tends to infinity, Let us give the initial system of equations and the boundary conditions of the prob!em of symmetric flow about bodies with an outgoing shock wave in a steady adiabatic gas flow.

From the last four equations of system (4) it is easy to express the values of p, p and T in terms of the squares of the velocity and entropy. The problem reduces to the integration of two differential equations with partial derivatives of the unknown functions u and V. The initial system of equations taken in this form is in some sense the best for constructing the approximating system corresponding to it, since it contains in all two partial differential equations, the entropy on the surface of the body is always constant, and the boundary problem for the approximating system will be the simplest. If we introduce the Bernoulli integral instead of the condition for adiabatic flow, the initial system becomes more complicated, and we forfeit the advantages we have just mentioned.

T).

Equation (5) is the well-known thermodynamic relation, written in dimensionless form. The dependences (6)‘ (7) for h and p and also their partial derivatives with respect to p and T can be found from the approximations of the tables for the given mixture of gases, or by integrating the system of thermodynamic equations numerically. This form of the initial system of equations is convenient in that it enables us to construct a numeric31 scheme for the solution of the problem without specifying exactly the actual composition of the gas mixture. Of most interest is the ~al~ulation of flow about bodies in 3 current of air. There now exist tables of thermodynamic functions of air calculated to take into account equilibrium dissociation and ionisation over a wide interval of pressures and temperatures. It is difficult (although Possible) to use them directly in calculating gas dynamical problems, and so we have recourse to the analytic representation of the necessary dependences. 1.X. Naumova [lOI has made approximations of the functions h and p with respect to the two variables fj and T for temperatures up to 16800°K and for pressures from 0,001 to 1000 atmospheres. The relative error of the approximations in comparison with the tables we have mentioned is less than 1 70. In calculating flow about bodies in air we have used these representations. Another method of calculating the parameters of tile mixture for given p and T consists in the direct numerical integration of the system of equations of chemical equilibrium (for air, see ill] ). but with a preliminary approximation of the constants of equilibrium and of the molar enthalpies of the components of the mixture, depending only on the temperature. For gas dynamical calculations, apart from 11 and p, it is also necessary to know their derivatives. Therefore it is useful to differentiate the initial system of thermodynamic equations (taking into account the approximations introduced) and the resulting ordinary differential equations are added to the approximate system. This releases us from iterative methods of solving the equations of chemical equilibrium and enables us to do the calculation for an arbitrary mixture of gases. To firinl: the initial system of equations to a form which is the mOSt suitable for the construction of the approximate system corresponding to it, in the case of the flow of a perfect gas with constant heat

As ip the previous case, along the axis of s_ymmetry (S = 0, y = 0) the values of the quantities u(n) and Em are unknown.

This happens when the characteristic time of the flow about the body in a gas is of the same order as the characteristic time of the excitation of the internal degrees of freedom of the molecules, their dissociation and ionisation. As before, we shall assume that the components of the mixture are thermo~n~ically perfect gases, and we shall ignore diffusion, thermal conductivity and radiation. Also we shall restrict the range of values of density and temperature to that in which the excitation of electronic levels is small and the process of ionisation has practically no effect on the flow parameters. Generally speaking, there are no fund~ental difficulties involved in taking account of ionised relaxation, but the theoretical and experimental data on the speed of non-equilibrium ionisation is very scanty. 7e shall

It is convenient to write the differential equations of the kinetic system (19) or (25) along the current 1 ines.

It is clear from an examination of the structure of the regions of influence that there always exists a characteristic of one family passing between the wave and the body and bounding the region of influence above. We shall take this characteristic from now on to be a bounding one, and a correct representation of the possible types of regions of influence will help us to construct rational solution schemes for the problem. With the help of these schemes we have to obtain the numerical solution of the initial system of equations in the minimal region of influence. Further, in each ~proximation all the boundary conditions of the problem must be satisfied. In addition, the approximating system must be clpsed. i.e. the number of equations, unknown functions, arbitrary parameters and conditions for determining them must be strictly in agreement. Suppose it is required to construct the numerical solution of a system of k differential equations with partial derivatives of the first In solving t!le problem by the order, containing k unknown functions. metl,od of integral relations the coordinate system is chosen so that two opposite boundaries of the region are coordinate lines.

known beforehand, an additional boundary condition is required. When there are singular points on the boundaries, the corresponding boundary conditions can be omitted, and they can be replaced by the conditions for the regularity of the solution.

Let us discuss the schemes for the numerical solution of the resulting systems of equations for all the cases examined (Figs. 3 & 4). The technique of constructing the corresponding approximating systems is described in c2! - [51.

The initial syst.em of equations is written in the coordinates s, R. The region of integration is divided into strips which are equidistant functions, 3s well as the intein II, as shown in Fig. 3.

from which we find the N unknown parameters for s = 0. The approximating system is thus closed, and the solution of the problem unique. As we see from (32), on the body the singular and sonic points coincide, while in the flow field the singular points lie in the supersonic region. In the first variant of the scheme the approximating system is integrated numerically from s = 0 to some supersonic ray s = s the position of which must ensure that conditions (32) are satisfied.*Nere, in all the cases we have examined, the region of influence of the initial system of equations is inside the region of integration. In the second variant of this scheme the region of integration is bounded above by some boundary characteristic s = sl(n) which is picked out during the calculation. The position of the characteristic is not fixed beforehand. The point of its intersection with the body sT = ~~(0) is selected as near as possible to the sonic, the characteristic itself having to reach the shock wave and bound the minimal region of influence. This makes it possible to carry out the calculation with an exact examination of the region of influence. Up to the ray s = sT the integral relations are formed from the body to the wave, and for s > sT from the boundary characteristic (i = 0) to the wave. For s = sT a continuous matching of the corresponding functions and derivatives must be performed. In practice we construct a single approximating system with different boundary conditions on the lines with a zero suffix. Schematically the approximating system in this case also can be written in the form (31) to which it is only necessary to add equations (23) for the boundary characteristic. The second of the equations (23) can be used to determine u,,. Thus, the scheme we have described ensures the construction of the numerical solution in the minimal region of influence of the initial system of equations. Calculation according to the two variants of the scheme gave close results. Scheme 1 was used for the calculation of both smooth bodies and those with a break in their contour or in the curvature of the generator. In the case of smooth bodies or bodies with a break in the curvature of their contour for s = 0 the conditions for determining the unknown parameters are given by the regularity of the solution (32).

If we now make a break in the generator on such a body in the region of influence (for-s = d) and the flow picture is changed so that the sonic point on the body lies at the point of break, then ir, a supersonic neighhourhood of this point Prandtl-leier type. flow will take place.

Up to the point of break s < r* the solution is done by the usual method in the coordinates s, n, and for s > s^ in a polar coordinate system with a pole at the point of !,reak (,I’ = 1 in the system s, n). If we use the well-known Prandtl-B!eier solution for s > d, then we must reject the differential equation for 11;. Otherwise, in forming the integral relations from the point of break to the wave, it is necessary, in order to determine u,,, to take into account the relation along the characteristics of t,he second family, which here degenerates to a point. The approximating system is then completely retained. For tile whole region of integration we construct one approximating system with different boundary conditions for u0 on the body. The calculation is done with one program. 3. The solution is constructed in the coordinates n, TJ= s/sl(n), where s = sl(n) is the equation of the boundary characteristic coming from the hrenk point. Here the calculation is done at once in the whole region of integration without matching the solution at the break point. It must be noted that in the neighbourhood of the point s = d the unknown functions will be discontinuous. Let us turn briefly to the construction of the solution in the neighhourhood of singular points (32). In any approximation through such point there pass only two solutions, both of which are regular.

it is not difficult to see that for the equations vi = Ei/(uH-CT), there exist two solutions of this type, only one of which satisfies the Physical sense and is matched with the solution of the system up to the singular point (the number of parameters and conditions for matching are equal). Experience of finding the numerical solution has shown that in the neighhourhood of singular points it is not necessary to line up special series. lith the help of the nsual methods of the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations we can practically enter the singular point itself, or approach it without any essential loss of accuracy at a distance of one or two computing steps. Thus we can satisfy the necessary condition at the singular point and determine the corresponding parameter. me magnitude of the derivative u[ in the neighbourhood of the singular Point s = si is weakly changing, and in continuing the calculation it is sufficient to extrapolate ui using two or three of its values for s < si over several computing steps after the singular point. To control the accuracy of the crossing the magnitude of the derivative vi immediately after the singular point must be found by means of extrapolation, from the corresponding formula, it being necessary to discontinue the extrapolation where both values practically coincide. The construction of the numerical solution in the nei~~I]rii~d of singular points is easily standardised by this method and does not cause any difficulties during the computation. The process of finding the parameters for s = 0 from the conditions at the singular points is done by the machine itself, for example, with the help of interpolations with respect to the parameter, using the continuous dependence of the solution on the parameter. It must be noted that in computing smooth bodies the dimensionless values of the derivatives in the region of influence are bounded, 0 < v: < I, and so the region of possible values of the parameters lies between Ri = 0 and E. = A. where A. = V? - ~2. It is convenient to use conditions (32) in tie folfn /?. = Af = O’which enables us to remain in the class of continuous derivaiives: I’ie can also carry out the process of finding the parsmeters with the help of a method similar to that of Newton for the solution of functional equations. V.F. Ivanov has worked out such a scheme for /V = 2. Ye consider now an iterational scheme which uses the information of t,he Drevious approximation, for each iteration only one singular point being traversed.

Using Scheme I the calculation of a large class of bodies, both plane and axisymmetric, in a stream of perfect gas with constant heat capacity, has been and is being done [171, [181, in the case of equilibrium flow al 50. Scheme I is suitable for the calculation of flow with large values of the I”aci: number of the incident stream #,, when the shock layer is comparatively thin and the distribution law of the parameters across the lalver is of a smooth nature. TO calculate flow for &, >3 it is usually sufficient to take two approximations (P: = 2) and for hypersonic values of “b we can even restrict ourselves to one (?! = 1). In this scheme the parluneters of flow on the shock wave and the body are found more exactly, and in the case of the second variant of the scheme on the boundary characteristic also. Good results are obtained also in the calculation for bodies of complex shape. For N = 1, f! the scheme gives the data which are necessary to calculate the supersonic region to sufficient accuracy. Using the results of the calculations of nose regions, P. I. Chushkin and N. P. ~hulishnina have calculated, by the method of characteristics, a large series of blunt plane and axisymmetric bodies (K = 1. 4) UP to considerable dist3nces along the length of the body fl91, [zd .

The initidl system of equations is written in the coordinates s, < = ~L/E(s), in which the contour of the body (< = 0) and the shock wave (5 = 1) become straight. As in the second variant of the previous scheme, the region of integration is bounded above by the characteristic s = ~~(5) passing between the wave and the body. The intermediate lines are drawn at equal distances in s between the axis of symmetry and the bounc!ary characteristic (Fig. 4). The partial differential equations are integrated across each strip, the integrals being approximated with the help of interpolation DOZY nomials in s, using the symmetry of the integrated functions with respect to s = 0 (the shock wave is a polynomial of even degree).

on the shock wave and the surface of the body The houndary conditions only at separate points (on the boundaries of the strips) are satisfied as the approximation becomes higher. the number of which increases It follows from the construction of the solution scheme itself that the region of influence is taken into account exactly in any approximation, the approximating system being completely closed (although the shape of the boundary characteristic is not known beforehand, an additional boundary condition on it closes the system}. For example, in the case of a perfect gas with constant heat capacity (system (4)) the Problem reduces in essence to the solution of two differential equations in partial derivatives with two unwon functions u and u (k = 2). Applying Scheme II we shall have one boundary condition on the axis of symmetry (V = 0) and two on the boundary characteristic (conditions (23)). Thus we shall have in all three (h + 1) conditions. iVe note that in this scheme it is not possible to bound the region of integration above by a ray or any other non-characteristic line, since in this case the region of influence is incorrectly accounted for and on the upper boundary of the region there is no sl~pplementar~~ boundary

It is not possible to approximate the whole expression at once (as was done before) since in this case the values of the unknown functions On the lower tmundary of the region of integration will not enter in it. Therefore for v = 1 the functions r(s, 5) and /(u, v, . . . ) are interpolated separately.

To carry out series of calculations of the flow about various bodies with an outgoing shobk wave it is convenient to have standard programs for both schemes. Experience of the calculations has shown that for Scheme I it is sufficient to have a program of the second approximation for the equilibrium case. The calculation of the flow of a Perfect gas with K = const. with this progr~ does not in Practice require any increase in machine time compared with the calculation according to a special program, provided the calculations of the thermodynamics1 functions are done according to the formulae for a perfect gas. The calculation for N = 1 can also be done with the program for the second approximation. In this case instead of the corresponding differential equations of the approximating system on the middle line we use dependences which are obtained as a result of equating the coefficients of the last texms of the interpolation polynomials (I, = (/e + fr)/2) to zero. It would anpear to be advisable flow according to Scheme II.
