| Description: | |
Introduction The purpose of the course is to provide a review of physico-chemical models for high enthalpy and plasma flows and to assess future research needs in this area. Use of these models for aerospace applications will also be presented, with special emphasis on Mars entry studies. This emphasis is based on the current international interest in planetary sample return missions. As successful planetary entry and exit depend directly on our understanding of the aerothermochemistry of gases, this course is directed toward improving the general knowledge of physical and chemical models that are being developed for this application. In particular, the topics of the special course include a state-of-the-art review and assessment of current research directions in:
The Directors of this special course are Professor D. Fletcher and T. Magin of the von Karman Institute, Dr. J.-M. Charbonnier of CNES, and Dr. G. R. Sarma of DLR.
Timetable
Lunch will be taken from 12h30 to 14h00. Coffee breaks are scheduled each
morning and afternoon. The afternoon sessions will normally finish at about 17h00.
