小攻角高超声速钝锥边界层中不同扰动对转捩的影响

为了研究上游不同扰动对转捩位置的影响,针对来流Ma=6,攻角1°,半锥角5°的钝锥边界层的转捩进行了数值模拟．首先研究了边界层中小扰动的演化,与流动稳定性理论进行了对比,结果表明:在所考虑的流场中,流动稳定性线性理论可以对扰动的增长率做出一个较好的预测．在此基础上,研究了不同扰动对转捩位置的影响．计算给出了在两种不同频率分布的扰动情况下,转捩位置沿周向的分布．结果表明,转捩位置沿周向分布与入口扰动的幅值和频率有关．某子午面的转捩位置由该处的最不稳定波在入口的幅值决定．根据大多数风洞中背景扰动的特性,解释了小攻角圆锥转捩实验中背风面先转捩,迎风面后转捩的现象．同时,还解释了在背风面附近转捩位置“凹陷”的现象．     

PSE在边界层中预测转捩位置的应用

层流到湍流的转捩是自然界和各项工程实践中广泛存在的现象,层流和湍流的性质大不相同．因此,预测转捩位置是流体力学中的重要理论和实际问题．针对不可压缩边界层,入口加入展向等幅值型和展向波包型两类扰动,展向等幅值型扰动是由一个二维波(2-D)和两个三维波(3-D)组成,使用抛物化稳定性方程(PSE)的方法来研究扰动的演化和预测转捩位置,并且与数值模拟的结果相比较．结果表明,PSE可以研究扰动的演化和预测转捩位置,同时其计算比数值模拟快得多．     

抛物化稳定性方程在可压缩边界层中应用的检验

用抛物化稳定性方程（PSE）,研究了可压缩边界层中扰动的演化,并与由直接数值模拟（DNS）所得进行比较．目的在检验PSE方法用于研究可压缩边界层中扰动演化的可靠性．结果显示,无论是亚音速还是超音速边界层,由PSE方法和由DNS方法所得结果都基本一致,而温度比速度吻合得更好．对超音速边界层,还计算了小扰动的中性曲线．与线性稳定性理论（LST）的结果相比,二者的关系和不可压边界层的情况相似．     

脉冲波作用下的高超音速非定常流动模拟及影响研究

采用高阶精度有限差分方法模拟了快声波脉冲扰动作用下的高超音速非定常流场,分析了脉冲波与高超音速流场的相互干扰,并应用Fourier频谱分析研究扰动波在边界层的发展．结果表明:来流脉冲扰动波与激波及边界层强烈相互作用,弓形激波明显向内弯曲,激波后扰动波被显著放大;来流扰动波与弓形激波干扰形成的边界层外的扰动波和近壁面内形成的边界层扰动波存在明显分界．钝锥头部参数扰动幅值要远大于其他位置参数扰动幅值．在边界层内的发展阶段,一些扰动模态持续增长,一些扰动模态被过滤掉,不再增长,甚至衰减,而也有一些扰动模态先衰减再增长．总的来说,在钝锥头部低频扰动模态为主导模态,随着扰动从流场上游向下游发展,总扰动模态中的低频模态成份和高频模态成份所占的比例开始转变,高频模态成分显著地增大．

二维超音速混合层中小激波的存在及其对流场结构的影响

在二维超音速混合层入口处引入T-S波及其亚谐波,对扰动的空间演化进行了数值模拟.研究了由扰动引发的小激波(shocklet)的强度与入口处扰动幅值的关系.分析了激波前后扰动速度剖面的变化,发现小激波的存在对扰动速度剖面有显著影响,而高速层和低速层中激波对扰动速度作用不同.     

PSE在超音速边界层二次失稳问题中的应用

用抛物化稳定性方程（PSE）研究超音速边界层中的二次失稳问题．结果显示无论二维基本扰动是第一模态还是第二模态的T-S波,二次失稳机制都起作用．三维亚谐波的放大率随其展向波数和二维基本波幅值的变化关系与不可压缩边界层中所得类似．但是,即使二维波的幅值大到2％的量级,三维亚谐波的最大放大率仍远小于最不稳定的第二模态二维T-S波的放大率．因此,二次失稳应该不是导致超音速边界层转捩的主要因素．     

Influence of Finite Amplitude Disturbances on the Nonstationary Modes of a Compressible Boundary Layer Flow

A weakly nonlinear stability analysis is performed to search for the effects of compressibility on a mode of instability of the three-dimensional boundary layer flow due to a rotating disk. The motivation is to extend the stationary work of [ 1 ] (hereafter referred to as S90) to incorporate into the nonstationary mode so that it will be investigated whether the finite amplitude destabilization of the boundary layer is owing to this mode or the mode of S90. Therefore, the basic compressible flow obtained in the large Reynolds number limit is perturbed by disturbances that are nonlinear and also time dependent. In this connection, the effects of nonlinearity are explored allowing the finite amplitude growth of a disturbance close to the neutral location and thus, a finite amplitude equation governing the evolution of the nonlinear lower branch modes is obtained. The coefficients of this evolution equation clearly demonstrate that the nonlinearity is destabilizing for all the modes, the effect of which is higher for the nonstationary waves as compared to the stationary waves. Some modes particularly having positive frequency, regardless of the adiabatic or wall heating/cooling conditions, are always found to be unstable, which are apparently more important than those stationary modes determined in S90. The solution of the asymptotic amplitude equation reveals that compressibility as the local Mach number increases, has the influence of stabilization by requiring smaller initial amplitude of the disturbance for the laminar rotating disk boundary layer flow to become unstable. Apart from the already unstable positive frequency waves, perturbations with positive frequency are always seen to compete to lead the solution to unstable state before the negative frequency waves do. Also, cooling the surface of the disk will be apparently ineffective to suppress the instability mechanisms operating in this boundary layer flow.     

Nonlinear instability of hypersonic flow over a cone

This study investigates the nonlinear stability of hypersonicviscous flow over a sharp slender cone. The attached shock andthe effects of curvature are taken into account. Asymptoticmethods are used for large Reynolds number and large Mach numberto examine the viscous modes of instability, which may be describedby a triple-deck structure. A weakly nonlinear analysis is carriedout allowing an equation for the amplitude of disturbances tobe derived. The coefficients of the terms in the amplitude equationare evaluated for axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric disturbances.Thus, the effects of the shock and curvature on the nonlinearstability of the flow may be deduced.     

Application of homotopy analysis method for natural convection of Darcian fluid about a vertical full cone embedded in pours media prescribed surface heat flux

In this paper, a powerful analytical method, called homotopy analysis method (HAM) is used to obtain the analytical solution for a nonlinear ordinary deferential equation that often appear in boundary layers problems arising in heat and mass transfer which these kinds of the equations contain infinity boundary condition. The boundary layer approximations of fluid flow and heat transfer of vertical full cone embedded in porous media give us the similarity solution for full cone subjected to surface heat flux boundary conditions. Nonlinear ODE which is obtained by similarity solution has been solved through homotopy analysis method (HAM). The main objective is to propose alternative methods of solution, which do not require small parameters and avoid linearization and physically unrealistic assumptions. The obtained analytical solution in comparison with the numerical ones represents a remarkable accuracy. The results also indicate that HAM can provide us with a convenient way to control and adjust the convergence region.     

Nonlinear Spatial Evolution of Small Disturbances from Boundary Conditions in Flat Inclined-Channel Flow

The asymptotic behavior of small disturbances as they evolve spatially from boundary conditions in a flat inclined channel is determined. These small disturbances develop into traveling waves called roll waves, first discussed by Dressler in 1949. Roll waves exist if the Froude number F exceeds 2, which consist of a periodic pattern of bores, or discontinuities. After confirming the instability condition for   F > 2  for the linearized equations in the boundary value case, the nonlinear boundary value problem for the weakly unstable region of F slightly larger than 2 is studied. Multiple scales and the Fredholm alternative theorem are applied to determine the evolution of the solution in space. It is found that the solution is dominated by the evolution of the disturbance along one characteristic. The shock conditions governing the asymptotic solution are determined and these conditions are used to determine the approximate shape of the resulting traveling wave from the solution. Both asymptotic and numerical results for periodic disturbances are presented.
