Abstract:
On the basis of the equations of twotemperature aerodynamics, the influence of vibrational relaxation on suppression of the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability in a developing in time shift layer of vibrational non-equilibrium diatomic gas is numerically investigated.
Keywords:Kelvin–Helmholtz instability, vibrational relaxation, kinetic energy of the disturbances, dissipation.
