Measurement of Shock Wave Attenuation in a Micro-channel
This work presents optical measurements of shock wave propagation in a glass micro-channel. This transparent facility, with a section ranging from 1 mm × 150 μm to 1 mm × 500 μm, exploits a high-speed schliere...

Flow Phenomena in Microscale Shock Tubes
Recent experiments on small shock tubes, at normal or reduced pressure, have revealed interesting phenomena. For example, Brouillette [1], using pressure instrumentation, has examined the operation of a 5.3 mm...

New Euler Extension for Rebuilding of Flows at High Angle of Attack
Major challenges in CFD are no more in attached flows except with the strong coupling in transonic or in confluence at trailing edges. Major challenges are in separated flow regime (1–2).

Concepts of Hypersonic Aircraft
Obviously, all concept of any aircraft is a compromise between conflicting requirements. Performance improvements generally induce direct cost.
