Abstract

A computational study has been performed to examine the effects of catalytic walls on the stagnation region heat transfer. The boundary conditions for none, finite, and fully catalytic walls have been incorporated into a multi-block compressible Navier-Stokes solver. In the present study, both chemical and thermal non-equilibrium effects were included. The flows over a blunt body model were simulated by varying surface catalytic recombination rates. A full range of catalycities was explored in the context of a constant wall temperature assumption. Detailed information on species concentrations, temperature, and surface heat flux are presented. Comparison with available flight data of surface heat flux is also made.
