Astrophysics and Space Science, 1982
The propagation of spherical shock waves in a dusty gas with radiation heat-flux and exponentially varying density is investigated in the paper. The equilibrium flow conditions are assumed to be maintained, and the radiation is considered to be of a diffusion type for an optically thick grey gas model. The shock wave moves with variable velocity and the total energy of the wave is non-constant. Non-similar solutions are obtained, and the effects of variation of the radiation parameter and time are investigated. The effects of an increase in (i) the mass concentration of solid particles in the mixture and (ii) of the ratio of the density of solid particles to the initial density of gas on the flow variables in the region behind the shock are also investigated.

The governing equations describing the propagation of a moderate planar normal shock wave into a homogeneous dust-gas suspension were formulated and solved numerically using the flux-corrected transport (FCT) technique. The numerically predicted attenuation of the shock wave was compared with the experimental results of Sommerfeld. Good agreement was obtained. It was found that the attenuation of moderate normal planar shock waves propagating into dusty gases with relatively high loading ratios of solid particles can be described by a general attenuation law.
Convergence of strong shock waves in an ideal gas with dust particles
Physics of Fluids, 2022
In this paper, the authors study the problem of an imploding strong cylindrical/spherical shock wave collapsing at the axis/center of a cylindrical/spherical piston that is filled with a dusty gas of uniform density. The dusty gas is assumed to be a mixture of an ideal gas and a large number of dust particles. The dust particles are of a micrometric size and uniformly distributed in the mixture. A mathematical model using a system of hyperbolic partial differential equations is presented for the considered problem. The perturbation series method is used to solve the implosion problem, providing a global solution and yielding accurately the results of Guderley's local similarity solution, which holds only in the neighborhood of the axis/center of implosion. The values of all possible real similarity exponents and the corresponding amplitudes are determined in the vicinity of the shock collapse by extending the flow variables and shock location in the Taylor series in time t. Furthermore, the obtained values of similarity exponents have been compared with the existing results and numerical results obtained by the other methods. The effects of the adiabatic exponent c, the wavefront curvature a, and various dusty gas parameters such as r, K p , and G 0 on the shock trajectory and flow variables have been graphically analyzed.
Strong shock wave propagation in a mixture of a gas and dusty particles with gravitational force
Zamm Zeitschrift Fur Angewandte Mathematik Und Mechanik, 1981
The presence of gravitational force in the considered problem makes it generally impossible to obtain similarity solutions. However, when the shock wave is strong and the shock speed has a large value, the gravitational force effect will be small because the Froude number will be very large. In this case, it is possible to use perturbation theory based on the similarity solution reported by Pai et al. (1980) to find the first-order effect of gravitational force on the strong shock propagation in a mixture of a gas and dusty particles. Except for the inclusion of the gravitational force terms, the present investigation is similar to the study conducted by Pai et al. (1980). It is found that the consideration of the gravitational force leads to some fundamental changes in the pressure, density, and velocity histories behind the propagating strong shock.
Converging shock wave in a dusty gas through nonstandard analysis
Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2012
A problem of propagation of strong plane and converging shock wave is studied in a mixture of a gas and small solid particles. It is assumed that the solid particles are continuously distributed in the gas. Jump conditions for plane and converging shock waves are derived using the nonstandard analysis. It is also assumed that the shock thickness occurs at infinitesimal interval and jump functions are smooth across this interval. The distribution of flow parameters across the shock wave are presented in terms of Heaviside functions and Dirac Delta measures.
Two-phase reactive particle flow through normal shock waves
International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 1978
An analysis is presented for the steady one-dimensional flow behind a normal shock wave of a compressible gas containing small spherical particles of solid propellant. The solids mass fraction is assumed large enough to require that the void volume fraction be retained as a variable in the governing conservation equations. The particles are ignited by the shocked air and by viscous interaction. Propellant gases are then generated which depend on the instantaneous size of the particles and on the linear burning rate. The latter is assumed dependent upon the local pressure and the particle temperature. These calculations are of interest because of the potential hazards of such particle flows, in that extreme pressures are predicted within the relaxation zone, pressures even greater than those calculated for the final equilibrium conditions. The results stress the importance of the Mach number of the normal {strong shock) and the energy content of the propellant (J/kg).
The propagation of shock waves in the self-gravitating mixture of dust particles
The propagation of strong shock waves in a self-gravitating dusty gas has been studied by Whitham method. Neglecting the effect of overtaking disturbances, analytical relations for shock velocity, particle velocity, shock strength and pressure have been obtained and discussed with the help of graphs and tables. The results obtained hear are compared with earlier results.
The relaxation zone behind normal shock waves in a reacting dusty gas. Part 1. Monatomic gases
Journal of Plasma Physics, 1982
The conservation equations for a suspension composed of an ionized gas and small solid dust particles are formulated and solved numerically. Such flows can be found downstream of strong normal shock waves propagating into dusty gases. The solution indicates that the presence of the dust has a significant effect on the post-shock flow field. Owing to the dust, the relaxation zone will be longer than in the pure plasma case; the equilibrium values for the suspension pressure and density will be higher than in the dust-free case, while the obtained values for the temperature, degree of ionization and velocity will be lower. The numerical solution was executed for shock Mach numbers ranging from 10 to 17. It was found that the thermal relaxation length for the plasma decreases rapidly with increasing shock Mach number, while the thermal relaxation length for the suspension mildly increases with increasing M. The kinematic relaxation length passes through a pronounced maximum at i M = 12...
The problem of propagation of shock waves has been discussed in a gas containing small solid particles through a tube of variable area of cross-section by using the method developed by Whitham. The mixture of gas and solid particles is assumed to be in viscid and the flow is governed by Euler’s equations expressing conservation of mass, momentum and energy. The results derived here are generalization of the results obtained previously in absence of small solid particles. Effects of a change in the value of parameters of small solid particles kp and G on the shock propagation are discussed
