Abstract
Flow simulations are carried on two different atmospheric conditions like air and carbon-di-oxide, provided for the same pressure, temperature and Mach number using commercial flow solvers. The re-entry atmosphere for Earth is air and for other exoplanets like Mars and Venus, the atmosphere mainly consists of carbon-di-oxide. The main objective of the paper is to present the effect of pressure, temperature and Mach number upon the aerodynamic characteristics of Sphere cone shaped re-entry capsule for the given different atmospheric conditions. The computational study in this paper demonstrates the importance of shock waves and explains the changes in the flow field for similar boundary conditions and variations in all aspects for these different atmospheric environments.
Keywords- Re-Entry, Sphere cone, Bow shock wave, Air, Carbon di oxide, Mach number.
