Based on maximum principle analysis together with definitions of restriction position and restriction stencil, a unification of multidimensional limiter construction process for unstructured mesh was presented. To enhance flow resolution, a new type of multidimensional limiter was developed. It was compared with several conventional limiters. It shows that due to less restriction in gradient reconstruction process, the new limiter is less dissipative and has better resolution for complex flow with shock and contact discontinuity interaction.

Numerical analysis is made to study thermodynamic models for surface thermal environment of Mars entering vehicles. It shows that flow in stagnation region stays almost in thermal equilibrium. As flight altitude rises,flow changes to thermal nonequilibrium. Heat transfer rate keeps the same in different thermodynamics models,if non-catalytic condition is set on the wall. In simulations with full-catalytic wall conditions,heat transfer rate in thermal non-equilibrium model become higher,due to difference of characteristic temperature in chemical reactions. The stronger the effect of thermal non-equilibrium is,the greater the characteristic temperature change and the heat transfer rate will be.
