Abstract:Full-spectrum correlated k-distribution models are presented for bands of CN and CO for applications relevant to entry into atmospheres of Titan, Mars, Venus and flows over an ablating heat shield. A new emission-weighted fullspectrum k-distribution model is proposed as an improvement over the more popular Planck function-weighted fullspectrum k-distribution model. In the new reordering scheme, emission coefficient is used as the weight instead of the Planck-function. To exploit the full potential of the k-dis… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
