This $170,579.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Illinois to develop computationally efficient and accurate models for describing non-equilibrium aerothermal environments encountered in flight and ground test facilities. The goal is to improve the accuracy of models that include chemical reactions and radiation, without the simplifications afforded by equilibrium Boltzmann statistics and quasi steady-state assumptions. The approach will use statistical mechanics to reconstruct the state distribution function needed for practical simulations. The model will be applied to analyze non-equilibrium radiation data collected at the NASA Ames Research Center. This grant does not have a set-aside designation.
