超声速钝体逆向喷流减阻的数值模拟研究

为研究逆向喷流技术对超声速钝体减阻的影响,采用标准k-ε湍流模型,通过求解二维Navier-Stokes方程对超声速球头体逆向冷喷流流场进行了数值模拟,并着重分析了喷口总压、喷口尺寸对流场模态和减阻效果的影响。计算结果显示:随着喷流总压的变化,流场可出现两种流动模态,即长射流穿透模态和短射流穿透模态;喷流能使球头体受到的阻力明显减小;存在最大减阻临界喷流总压值(在所研究参数范围内最大减阻可达51.1%);在其它喷流物理参数不变时,随着喷口尺寸的增大,同一流动模态下的减阻效果下降。本文的研究对超声速钝体减阻技术在工程上的应用具有一定的参考价值。     

Effect of Spherical Recesses on the Characteristics of Coanda Flow

Sub- and supersonic flows past curvilinear surfaces with spherical recesses are investigated. The Coanda flow was created by a jet flowing out from a plane convergent nozzle into a submerged space along the tangent to a circular cylinder. The forces exerted on the cylinder and the total and static pressure profiles in Coanda jet cross-sections were measured. It is shown that the spherical recesses increase the friction drag at both sub- and supersonic velocities.     

Flow regimes formed by a counterflow jet in a supersonic flow

Results on the effect of the dynamic pressure, Mach number, and temperature of a jet injected from a body upstream in a free supersonic flow on the formation of flow regimes are presented. Flow regimes that ensure the greatest decrease in the drag of the body are given, the mechanism of formation of the LPM flow structure is described, and an approximate criterion is found, which allows determination of the range of existence of various modes of jet penetration into the flow.     

Interaction of a jet exhausting from a body with an opposing supersonic stream of rarefied gas

The experimental investigation of supersonic flow past a sphere with a jet exhausting from the front point of the sphere into the flow at large [1] and moderate [2] Reynolds numbers Re has revealed an effect of shielding from the oncoming stream, this leading to a decrease in the drag coefficient of the sphere and of the energy flux to it. A numerical simulation of the flow has been made in the case of supersonic flow past a sphere with a sonic jet from a nozzle situated on the symmetry axis in the continuum regime [3]. In the present paper, this problem is investigated for flow of a rarefied gas on the basis of numerical solution of a model kinetic equation for a monatomic gas.     

The structure of particle-laden,underexpanded free jets

Underexpanded, supersonic gas-particle jets were experimentally studied using the shadowgraph technique in order to examine the influence of the dispersed particles on the shape of the free jet and the structure of the imbedded shock waves. The particle mass loading at the nozzle exit was varied between zero and one, and two sizes of particles (i.e. spherical glass beads) with mean number diameters of 26 and 45 m were used. It was found that the Mach-disc moves upstream towards the orifice with increasing particle loading. The laser light sheet technique was also used to visualize the particle concentration distribution within the particle jet and the spreading rate of the particle jet. Furthermore, the particle velocity along the jet centerline was measured with a modified laser-Doppler anemometer. These measurements revealed that the particles move considerably slower than the gas flow at the nozzle exit. This is mainly the result of the particle inertia, whereby the particles are not accelerated to sonic speed in the converging part of the nozzle.In order to further explore the particle behavior in the free jet, numerical studies were performed by a combined Eulerian/Lagrangian approach for the gas and particle phases, including full coupling between the two phases. The numerical results showed that the application of different particle velocities at the nozzle exit as the inlet conditions, which were below the sonic speed of the gas phase has a significant influence on the free jet shape and the configuration of the shock waves. These results demonstrate that the assumption of equilibrium flow (i.e. zero slip between the phases) at the nozzle exit which has been applied in most of the previous numerical studies is not justified in most cases. Furthermore, the numerical calculations of the free jet shape and the particle velocity along the jet axis were compared with the measurements. Although correlations for rarefaction and compressibility effects in the drag coefficient were taken into account, the particle velocity along the center line was considerably overpredicted.This article was processed using Springer-Verlag T_EX Shock Waves macro package 1.0 and the AMS fonts, developed by the American Mathematical Society.     

带喷流激波针流动特性实验研究

采用动态测力、动态测压和纹影等风洞实验技术,对加装了带喷流激波针的钝头体的绕流特性、稳定和非稳模态的形成条件和机理进行了研究.结果表明:带喷流激波针流场存在稳态和非稳态两种模态,超声速喷流的压比大于临界压比时流动处于稳定模态,反之则为非稳模态;增大激波针长度可减小钝头体阻力,但达到一定长度后,进一步减阻的效果不再显著;增大喷流压比能够有效减弱再附激波强度,有利于缓解单独激波针的肩部热斑问题;非稳模态下波系自激振荡对再附激波在钝头体表面所围的区域影响剧烈,振荡是周期性的,且存在确定的主导频率,主导频率随喷流压力比增大而减小;自激振荡的产生是由于喷流出口周围的反压在喷流压比小于临界压比时无法获得持续的平衡而导致.      

Numerical modelling of the entrainment of particles in inviscid supersonic flow

The interaction between particles situated in close proximity and moving at supersonic speeds is investigated computationally. The simplest case of the motion of a single particle travelling behind a lead particle is used to elucidate the role of aerodynamic forces in the motion of a group of particles. The effect of the following parameters on the drag and lift forces acting on each of two particles of equal diameter in proximity is investigated: the free-stream Mach number, and the axial and lateral displacements of the trailing particle. The two-dimensional flow field is numerically simulated using an unsteady Euler CFD code to find the steady-state drag and lift coefficients for both particles. Three static zones of aerodynamic influence in the wake of the lead particle are identified, which are denoted as the entrainment, lateral attraction, and ejection zones. A non-dimensional representation of the zones of influence is given. It is shown that the dynamic entrainment of particles can occur even when the path of the trailing particle originates outside the entrainment and lateral attraction zones.

Measurements of 3D velocity and scalar field for a film-cooled airfoil trailing edge

We present an experimental study of a supersonic nozzle with supersonic iodine injection. This nozzle simulates Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser (COIL) flow conditions with non-reacting, cold flows. During the experiments, we used a laser sheet near 565 nm to excite fluorescence in iodine, which we imaged with an intensified and gated CCD camera. We captured streamwise and semi-spanwise (oblique-view) images, with fluorescence revealing the material injected into the flow. We identified the flow structures in the images, and produced quantitative characterizations of the flow morphology and of the mixing between the primary and injected flow. We considered four injection scenarios. The first scenario includes a single injector positioned downstream of the nozzle throat. To enhance the mixing between the flows, trip jets are placed in the wake of the single jet. The sonic trip jets, significantly smaller than the primary supersonic iodine jet, are intended to destabilize the counter-rotating vortex pair (CRVP) of the primary jet. We compare three different trip jet configurations for their ability to enhance mixing between the oxygen and iodine flows.     

Magnetogasdynamic generation of electrical energy in models of aircraft with a high-speed jet engine

The possibility of generating electric power in a plane model of an integral high-speed hydrogen-burning jet engine by mounting a magnetogasdynamic (MHD) generator at the combustion chamber exit is discussed. Attention is concentrated on clarifying the effect of MHD energy extraction from the stream on the aircraft’s thrust characteristics. The internal and external flows are simulated numerically. The two-dimensional supersonic gasdynamic flow inside the engine (in the air-intake, combustion chamber, MHD generator, and nozzle) and the supersonic flow past the aircraft are described on the basis of the complete averaged system of Navier-Stokes equations (in the presence of turbulence), which includes MHD force and heat sources, a one-parameter turbulence model, the electrodynamic equations for an ideal segmented MHD generator, and the equations of the detailed chemical kinetics of hydrogen burning in air. The numerical solution is obtained by means of a computer program that uses a relaxation scheme and an implicit higher-order version of the Godunov method. It is shown that MHD electric power generation can be realized without disturbing the positive balance in the relation between the thrust and the drag of the aircraft with the engine operating with allowance for the MHD drag, but with some loss of effective thrust.     

Particle statistics in a gas–solid coaxial strongly swirling flow: A direct numerical simulation

A direct numerical simulation of a strongly coaxial swirling particle-laden flow is conducted with reference to a previous experiment. The carrier phase is simulated as a coaxial swirling flow through a short nozzle injecting into a large container. The particle phase is carried by the primary jet, and simulated in the Lagrangian approach. The drag force, slip-shear force and slip-rotation force experienced by particles are calculated. A partial validation of the results is followed. The results are analyzed in Eulerian approach focusing on the statistical behavior of particle motion. The relative importance of the drag, slip-shear and slip-rotation forces under different Stokes numbers is indicated quantitatively. The particle velocity profiles, fluctuations, Reynolds stress, and turbulence intensity are demonstrated and analyzed respectively. An important “choke” behavior for large particles within the mainstream is found and interpreted. Additionally, the patterns of particle distribution and the helical structures of particle motion under different Stokes numbers are demonstrated qualitatively and analyzed quantitatively.     

Experimental study of the drag of the forebody and the cylindrical part of the HB-1 model with an upstream injection of a fluid in a supersonic flow

Values of the gas-dynamic drag of the forebody and the cylindrical part of the HB-1 test model in a supersonic flow have been separately measured using an internal strain-gauge balance. It is shown that an upstream injection of a fluid jet from the model forebody decreases the drag of both the forebody and the cylindrical part.

Flow in a viscous jet escaping through a supersonic nozzle into a semi-infinite ambient space

The problem of an axisymmetric gas flow in a supersonic nozzle and in the jet escaping from the nozzle to a quiescent gas is solved within the framework of Navier-Stokes equations. The calculated pressure distribution is compared with that measured in the jet by a Pitot tube. The influence of the jet pressure ratio, Reynolds number, and half-angle of the supersonic part of the nozzle on nozzle flow and jet flow parameters is studied. It is shown that the distributions of gas-dynamic parameters at the nozzle exit are nonuniform, which affects the jet flow. The flow pattern for an overexpanded jet shows that jet formation begins inside the nozzle because of boundary-layer displacement from the nozzle walls. This result cannot be obtained with the inviscid formulation of the problem.     

Penetration height correlations for non-aerated and aerated transverse liquid jets in supersonic cross flow

Experimental results on the mixing of non-aerated and aerated transverse liquid jet in supersonic cross flow (M = 1.5) are presented in this paper. The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of the gas/liquid mass ratio on the penetration and atomization of an aerated liquid jet in high speed cross flow and to develop correlations for the penetration heights. High speed imaging system was used in this study for the visualization of the injection of aerated liquid jet. The results show the effect of jet/cross flow momentum flux ratio, the gas/liquid mass ratio and the Ohnesorge number on the penetration of aerated liquid jet in supersonic cross-flow. New correlations of the spray penetration height for the non-aerated liquid jet (GLR = 0) and the net gain in spray penetration height for the aerated liquid jet (GLR > 0) are presented.     

Experimental study of ventilated cavity flow over a 3-D wall-mounted fence

Ventilated cavity flow over a fixed height 3-D wall-mounted fence is experimentally investigated in a cavitation tunnel for a range of free-stream conditions. The impact of 3-D effects on cavity topology is examined, along with the dependence of the cavitation number and drag on the volumetric flow rate coefficient, fence height based Froude number and vapour pressure based cavitation number. Three different flow regimes are identified throughout the range of cavitation numbers for a particular free-stream condition. Generally, the cavity has a typical re-entrant jet closure the intensity of which is found to increase linearly with increasing Froude number. This increase in re-entrant jet intensity causes an increase in drag with Froude number for constant volumetric flow rate coefficient. At low Froude numbers the closure mechanism transitions from a single to a split re-entrant jet. The parameters used to characterize the cavity topology show a linear dependence on Froude number irrespective of the closure mode. The cavity topology and drag are found to be independent of vapour pressure based cavitation number.     

Mechanism of self-oscillations in a supersonic jet impact onto an obstacle 1. Obstacle with a spike

Results of numerical simulations and experimental investigations of self-oscillations arising in the case of impingement of an overexpanded or underexpanded jet onto an obstacle with a spike are reported. The mechanisms of the emergence and maintaining of self-oscillations for overexpanded and underexpanded jets are elucidated. It is demonstrated that self-oscillations are caused by disturbances in a supersonic jet, which induce mass transfer between the supersonic flow and the region between the shock wave and the obstacle. The feedback is ensured by acoustic waves generated by the radial jet on the obstacle. These waves propagate in the gas surrounding the jet, impinge onto the nozzle exit, and initiate disturbances of the supersonic jet parameters. In the overexpanded jet, these disturbances penetrate into the jet core, where they are amplified in oblique shock waves.     

Study of active flow control for a simplified vehicle model using the PANS method

Flow control has shown a potential in reducing the drag in vehicle aerodynamics. The present numerical study deals with active flow control for a quasi-2D simplified vehicle model using a synthetic jet (zero net mass flux jet). Recently developed near-wall Partially-Averaged Navier–Stokes (PANS) method, based on the ζ–f RANS turbulence model, is used. The aim is to validate the performance of this new method for the complex flow control problem. Results are compared with previous studies using LES and experiments, including global flow parameters of Strouhal number, drag coefficients and velocity profiles. The PANS method predicts a drag reduction of approximately 15%, which is closer to the experimental data than the previous LES results. The velocity profiles predicted by the PANS method agree well with LES results and experimental data for both natural and controlled cases. The PANS prediction showed that the near-wake region is locked-on due to the synthetic jet, and the shear layer instabilities are thus depressed which resulted in an elongated wake region and reduced drag. It demonstrates that the PANS method is able to predict the flow control problem well and is thus appropriate for flow control studies.     

Effect of distributed gas injection on aerodynamic characteristics of a body of revolution in a supersonic flow

Results of experimental and numerical investigations of the effect of gas injection through a permeable porous surface on the drag coefficient of a cone-cylinder body of revolution in a supersonic flow with the Mach number range M _h = 3–6 are presented. It is demonstrated that gas injection through a porous nose cone with gas flow rates being 6–8% of the free-stream flow rate in the mid-section leads to a decrease in the drag coefficient approximately by 5–7%. The contributions of the decrease in the drag force acting on the model forebody and of the increase in the base pressure to the total drag reduction are approximately identical. Gas injection through a porous base surface with the flow rate approximately equal to 1% leads to a threefold increase in the base pressure and to a decrease in the drag coefficient. Gas injection through a porous base surface with the flow rate approximately equal to 5% gives rise to a supersonic flow zone in the base region.     

Influence of injection on stabilization of flow over an axisymmetric body with a recess facing into a supersonic oncoming stream

Numerical modeling of supersonic flow over a body with an annular step formed by two coaxial cylinders is performed by the Godunov method within the framework of the model of an ideal gas. Regimes of nonsteady streamline flow and peculiarities of the flow associated with the presence of a cylindrical recess in the nose part of the body are analyzed. The influence of the intensity of injection of an annular wall jet from the bottom of the recess on flow stabilization and the body drag is investigated. The domain of the existence of steady streamline flow is established. Khar'kov Aviation Institute, Khar'kov 310070.
