Abstract

The steady two-dimensional problem of reflexion of an oblique partly dispersed plane shock wave from a plane wall is studied analytically. Viscosity, diffusion and heat conduction are neglected. The thermodynamic state of the gas is assumed to be determined by the instantaneous values of the specific entropy s, pressure p and a finite number of internal state variables. Results for the flow field behind the reflected shock are obtained by a perturbation method which is based on the assumption that the influence of relaxation is relatively weak.
