Supercritical Flows

The asymptotic solution of shock tube flows with homogeneous condensation is presented for both smooth, or subcritical, flows and flows with an embedded shock wave, or supercritical flows. For subcritical flows an analytical expression, independent of the particular theory of homogeneous condensation to be employed, that determines the condensation wave front in the rarefaction wave is obtained by the asymptotic analysis of the rate equation along pathlines. The complete solution is computed by an algorithm which utilizes the classical nucleation theory and the Hertz–Knudsen droplet growth law. For supercritical flows four distinct flow regimes are distinguished along pathlines intersecting the embedded shock wave analogous to supercritical nozzle flows. The complete global solution for supercritical flows is discussed only qualitatively owing to the lack of a shock fitting technique for embedded shock waves. The results of the computations obtained by the subcritical algorithm show that most of the experimental data available exhibit supercritical flow behaviour and thereby the predicted onset conditions in general show deviations from the measured values. The causes of these deviations are reasoned by utilizing the qualitative global asymptotic solution of supercritical flows.

Some recent work on the existence of vibrational de-excitation shocks (δ-shocks) in expanding non-equilibrium nozzle flows is extended to include situations in which an adiabatic shock (δ-shocks) may be embedded within the de-excitation shock. A discussion of some further properties of the shock solution is given and some examples are worked out. Numerical solutions of the full equations are also presented. These solutions confirm the existence of the δ-shocks but bring to light certain anomalies in the simple approximate solution. The modifications necessary to remove these discrepancies are outlined, and the implications of the numerical results are briefly discussed. Finally, some comments on the nature of the asymptotic solution for an arbitrary rate process are made.
