SHOCK WAVES IN RADIATION-MAGNETOGASDYNAMICS
Technical Report

OSTI ID:4096730
The general Rankine-Hugoniot relations for a normal shock wave in radiation-magnetogasdynamics were investigated. It was found that tuese relations differ considerably from those without radiation effects, particularly for the case that the gas is initially so hot that the radiation pressure is not negligible. For a given strength of the shock wave, the temperature jump across the shock with radiation effect is much smaller than that without radiation effect. Various limiting cases have been discussed. In certain cases the results may be expressed in terms of an effective ratio of specific heats gamma / sub e/ and an effective gas pressure. A general method of solution by successive approximations is given. Some numerical results are obtained. (auth)
