Conclusion Quasi second-order upwind finite-volume approximations have been extended to construct implicit algorithms for the computation of hypersonic non-equilibrium inviscid or viscous flows over adapted unstructured grids. The Navier-Stokes computations have shown great sensitivity to the modelling of the transport terms and to the degree of wall catalysis. Thus an accurate prediction of the wall heat flux would require taking into account a more appropriate model of the gas-surface interaction.
