Description
We present an example of our computations on a shock wave refracting from CO2 into CH4. The results are compared with the experiments of Abdel-Fattah and Henderson. Our input data was the same as the parameters they measured and we used the same boundaries. We also took into account the mutal gas contamination present in the experiments and the effects of a separating membrane. All the principle properties of a free-precursor refraction were detected
