Study calculates electron temperature during shock waves in air, suggesting new insights into energy conservation.
An electron-radiative-collisional (eRC) calculation model of physicochemical processes and radiative processes in strong shock waves in air at velocities of approximately 10 km/s is presented. The author’s calculation model for the velocities of electron excitation of diatomic molecules during their collisions with electrons and lifetimes of excited states based on using ab initio data for the Einstein coefficients is used. The electron temperature is predicted by solving the equation of conservation of energy of electrons. The calculation data are compared with the experimental data for a shock wave in air at a velocity of 10.8 km/s.
