NEQHTCAT

Laminar Nonequilibrium Aeroheating


The Laminar Nonequilibrium Heating program (NEQHTCAT) is used to predict the nonequilibrium heating on the surface of a partially catalytic flat plate moving at supersonic speed through the atmosphere. NEQHTCAT has been used to analyze the aeroheating effects on the Shuttle Orbiter for various re-entry trajectories. The program calculates thermodynamic properties and equilibrium edge properties and converts these, where required, to a frozen boundary layer condition.
