Description:
An analytical approach is presented for computing the flow fields, energy fluxes, and heat shield requirements for Saturn probes since total simulation of the shock layer is not feasible. The governing mechanisms are examined and uncoupled, and then put together. Experimental and theoretical inputs are synthesized to provide the necessary information for the heat shield computation.
