Summary

Gas-particle flows became relevant in Aerospace Engineering owing to small solid particle additives to alleviate acoustical instabilities in solid propellant rocket motors, thereby motivating the study of a variety of nonlinear and linear waves. Emphasis is placed on fundamental aspects of the relaxation nature of the flow processes.

Mach Wave and Acoustical Wave Structure in Nonequilibrium Gas-Particle Flows Summary

Mach Wave and Acoustical Wave Structure in Nonequilibrium Gas-Particle Flows by Joseph T. C. Liu (Brown University, Rhode Island)

In this Element, the gas-particle flow problem is formulated with momentum and thermal slip that introduces two relaxation times. Starting from acoustical propagation in a medium in equilibrium, the relaxation-wave equation in airfoil coordinates is derived though a Galilean transformation for uniform flow. Steady planar small perturbation supersonic flow is studied in detail according to Whitham's higher-order waves. The signals owing to wall boundary conditions are damped along the frozen-Mach wave, and are both damped and diffusive along an effective-intermediate Mach wave and diffusive along the equilibrium Mach wave where the bulk of the disturbance propagates. The surface pressure coefficient is obtained exactly for small-disturbance theory, but it is considerably simplified for the small particle-to-gas mass loading approximation, equivalent to a simple-wave approximation. Other relaxation-wave problems are discussed. Martian dust-storm properties in terms of gas-particle flow parameters are estimated.
