Solutions are presented for the stagnation-region shock-layer equations, including radiative transfer with spectral lines and silica ablation during Jovian entry. Results for variations of entry angle, sphere-cone configuration, and atmospheric model are given. The effect of silica ablation on the radiative and convective surface heating is correlated with the ratio of the wall to free-stream mass flux. Correlations are also given for spectral distributions. The effect of newly obtained SiO radiation properties on the surface heating is examined. (Buehn)
