Description:
A description is given of the computational codes that are to be used in studies of the heating and aerodynamic performance of entry probes for the scientific exploration of the planets Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus. These codes include a time-asymptotic numerical method which takes into account radiative transport and equilibrium chemistry for the direct solution of the radiative, inviscid flow over an axisymmetric or two-dimensional body. The method considers both supersonic and subsonic flow in the downstream region. Another code represents a laminar, viscous-shock-layer solution.
