Abstract
Numerical studies of the aerodynamic characteristics of the “Federation” reentry vehicle are performed by the direct simulation Monte Carlo method for an altitude of 90 km. Quantitative effects of a number of physical and chemical models of this method on the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle are demonstrated.
