Abstract
The aim of this work is to analyse the high temperature flow in a hypersoni c nozzle taking into account the chemical and vibrational nonequilibrium fo r the different species of air mixture. The transition from 3D to 2D axisym metric is assured by the technique of the domain pertubation. The numerical results show the difference between two different models: the model of 3 c hemical reactions (Zeldovich model) and model of 17 chemical reactions.
