%X A numerical study is conducted of power law shaped leading edges situated in a rarefied hypersonic flow. The motivation-is interest in investigating the flowfield structure of power law shaped leading edges as possible candidates for blunting geometries of hypersonic leading edges. The primary aim is to examine in detail the effect of geometry of such leading edges on the shock wave structure. The sensitivity of the shock wave shape, standoff distance, and shock wave thickness to shape variations of the power law class of leading edges is calculated by using the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. Calculations show that the shape of the shock wave is in agreement with that predicted by the analytic hypersonic small disturbance theory for the flow conditions considered.
