A theory for the heat transfer to the stagnation-point boundary layer of an axisymmetric blunt body in a subsonic two-temperature argon plasma flow was developed. Two-temperature transport properties were calculated from the rigorous kinetic theory and are employed in solving the multifluid problem formulated with a wall sheath boundary condition. The system of equations is solved numerically for various problem parameters. The effects of parameters on thermal nonequilibrium characteristics of the boundary layer are discussed. Also shown are the variations in the transport properties across the boundary layer.
