The one-dimensional standing shock wave is the simplest flow in which nonequilibrium effects may be considered. The direct-simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC) has yielded excellent agreement with results reported for the case of nitrogen flow at Mach 1.7. The DSMC technique is presently used in conjunction with a variable energy transfer probability model in which energy is transferred between the translational and rotational modes via the Borgnakke-Larsen (1975) phenomenological model.
