Shock Wave Structures in Gas-Particle Mixtures
Abstract
Effects of the particle specific heat on shock wave structures in dusty gases are numerically investigated by the moment method for the Boltzmann equation. It is shown that for the small specific heat the particle temperature overshoots the Rankine-Hugoniot equilibrium value, provided a shock wave is strong, and that for the large specific heat the particle temperature increases monotonically and the gas temperature overshoots. Also it is shown that the frozen region disappears with the increasing specific heat, and the dispersed shock wave is formed.
