The Method Of Characteristics

Solutions of the two-dimensional, unsteady integral momentum equation are obtained via the method of characteristics for two limiting modes of light gas launcher operation, the “constant base pressure gun” and the “simple wave gun”. Example predictions of boundary layer thickness and heat transfer are presented for a particular 1 in. hydrogen gun operated in each of these modes. Results for the constant base pressure gun are also presented in an approximate, more general form.

The Method Of Characteristics

Abstract The method of characteristics for two-dimensional supersonic flow is reviewed and summarized. A characteristics chart is presented for use with the graphical procedure of Prandtl and Busemann. A new numerical procedure is described which eliminates graphical operations and which allows of more accurate solutions. To facilitate the numerical method, a table of useful functions is included.
