2-D Steady Transonic flows for full Euler equations
October 23, 2008
3-4 PM, 646 PGH
Abstract
Transonic flows arise from various physical phenomena. In general,
Euler equations are appropriate models for gas dynamics involving shocks.
In this talk, I will focus on the wedge problem. When a supersonic flow
past a wedge, there will be a shock created attaching to the tip of the wedge,
given some subsonic condition in the far field. I will talk about the existence and
uniqueness of this type of flows for 2-D steady Euler equations. The Euler system
will be reduced to an elliptic equation in subsonic region and some delicate elliptic
estimates are needed to solve the problem.
