Flow and heat transfer in underexpanded nonequilibrium jets of an induction plasmatron

The results of experimental and numerical investigations of heat transfer to a cylindrical flatended model in underexpanded high-enthalpy air jets, including those flowing out through cylindrical heads of an elongated channel, are presented for the case of the operating parameters of the 100-kW VGU-4 plasma gun.
