Abstract:
  • This work investigates the sensitivity of direct simulation Monte Carlo input parameters for a high-temperature hypersonic flow scenario. The Computation of Hypersonic Ionizing Particles in Shocks (CHIPS) direct simulation Monte Carlo code simulates a rarefied hypersonic shock tube experiment in air. CHIPS is used to simulate NASA Electric Arc Shock Tube data for a peak radiative heating lunar return scenario.
