Gas-Flow Perturbation by a High-Power Heat Source

Resumo

We consider a gas-dynamic model of a one-dimensional flow of non-viscous perfect gas in the absence of heat conduction when a high-power localized heat source is switched on. Within the framework of this model, it is possible to thoroughly analyze the problem of the gas-flow regimes, which occur as a result of switch-on of such a source, in a wide range of values of the energy-deposition power and initial gas-dynamic characteristics of the flow. Eventually, we obtain a sufficiently general insight into the character of the resulting flows and the conditions of their realizations.
