Aerothermodynamics for Space Vehicles and High-velocity Flow Data Base

Presents the solving of problems in three-dimensional, viscous high speed computational aerodynamics. The results have been brought together at a Workshop held at ESTEC in November 1994. The book consists of 60 contributions made up of invited lectures, material related to problem description and syntheses of test cases. The content is well balanced: several test cases addressing different issues are developed. It enables readers to validate existing computer models. This text should be of interest to engineers and scientists working in the field of computational fluid dynamics, especially laminar and turbulent compressible fluid dynamics.
