EFFECT OF HIGH-SPEED OVERSHOOT IN A SHOCK WAVE WITH MAXIMUM COMPRESSION

Abstract

We report some results of the analytical study of translational nonequilibrium in the shock wave that have been previously formulated in our systematic studies. Analytical models of high-speed translational nonequilibrium in binary gas mixtures are analyzed. The effect of high-speed overshoot in the shock wave with maximum compression is considered. It is shown that the maximum of this effect satisfies the principle of independence of the Mach number.
