Notes:
The first application of a spectral multi-domain method for viscous compressible flow is presented. The method imposes a global flux balance condition at the interface so that high-order continuity of the solution is preserved. The global flux balance is imposed in terms of a spectral integral of the discrete equations across adjoining domains. Since the discretized equations interior to each domain are solved uncoupled from each other and since the interface relation has a block structure, the solution scheme can be adapted to the particular requirement in each subdomain. To illustrate these advantages a Mach 11 shock calculation is presented to study the chemical kinetics initiated as air passes through a fully resolved shock wave.
