Abstract:
The process of propagation of shock waves in two-component mixtures is considered. The studies were performed within the framework of the two-velocity approximation of mechanics of heterogeneous media with account of different pressures of the components. The stability of propagation of all types of stationary shock waves (fully dispersed, frozen-dispersed, dispersed-frozen, and frozen shock waves of two-front configuration) to infinitesimal and finite perturbations is shown numerically, using the method of coarse particles. The problem of initiation of shock waves (the formation of different types of shock waves from stepwise initial data) is solved. Flows in the transonic range relative to the speed of sound in the first component are obtained.
