氨燃料吸气式变循环发动机性能分析

针对飞行马赫数0 ~ 10的宽域飞行器对吸气式动力的需求, 提出了一种以氨为燃料和冷却剂的宽域吸气式变循环发动机, 其工作模态可有3种: 涡轮模态、预冷模态和冲压模态. 首先通过对该发动机各模态热力循环过程进行建模, 计算得到发动机比推力、比冲和总效率等性能参数, 初步验证其在马赫数0 ~ 10范围内工作的可行性; 然后, 选取甲烷和正癸烷为低温低密度和煤油类碳氢燃料的典型代表, 对比各模态下氨与碳氢燃料发动机的性能差异. 结果表明, 由于氨突出的当量总热沉和当量热值, 飞行马赫数3 ~ 5的预冷模态发动机性能各指标均优于碳氢燃料. 在涡轮模态和冲压模态下, 氨燃料发动机比冲较低, 但比推力和总效率优于碳氢燃料; 最后, 对比分析各类燃料马赫数0 ~ 10宽域工作特性, 发现氨预冷可以显著提升发动机比推力, 特别在高马赫数范围, 再生冷却通道内氨可发生裂解反应大量吸热并分解为氢气和氮气, 会进一步提升发动机比推力和比冲, 且不会堵塞冷却通道, 因此可胜任飞行马赫数0 ~ 10的宽范围飞行需求. 而煤油类碳氢燃料受限于比推力低和裂解结焦问题, 最高工作马赫数难以超过8. 本文提出的氨燃料吸气式变循环发动机, 当量冷却能力强且比推力高, 适合用于二级入轨飞行器的一级动力、高马赫数宽域吸气式飞行以及未来高超声速民航等场景.

Numerical analysis of supersonic combustion ramjet with upstream fuel injection

This paper describes possible fuel injection scheme for airbreathing engines that use hydrocarbon fuels. The basic idea is to inject fuel at the spike tip of the supersonic inlet to achieve mixing and combustion efficiency with a limited length combustion chamber. A numerical code, able to solve the full Navier–Stokes equations in turbulent and reacting flows, is employed to obtain numerical simulations of the thermo‐fluidynamic fields at different scramjet flight conditions, at Mach numbers of M=6.5 and 8. The feasibility of the idea of the upstream injection is checked for a simple axisymmetric configuration and relatively small size. The results are discussed in connection with the potential benefits deriving from the use of new ultra high temperature ceramics (UHTC). Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

双模态发动机的模态鉴别方法

双模态冲压发动机的不同燃烧模态具有不同的稳焰机制和流态特征,并且在模态转换时伴随着显著的推力变化. 因此,准确判断燃烧模态,对于捕捉发动机的燃烧区位置/范围、释热分布特征,以及为进一步优化燃烧室的设计(流道结构和供油布局) 具有重要意义. 目前尚无鉴别模态的有效试验方法,本文提出了一种模态鉴别的试验方法,并在超燃直连台上开展验证试验. 试验中使用的测量技术包括:壁面静压、高速阴影/纹影、多通道可调谐二极管吸收光谱和高能态碳氢自由基CH* 自发光成像. 利用多种测量方法的组合,可以同时获得燃烧室中气流静温、速度、马赫数分布,释热分布以及燃烧区位置/范围. 这些试验数据能够用于判别模态,并获得不同模态的流动和火焰特征.

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.     

Experimental investigation of combustion mechanisms of kerosene-fueled scramjet engines with double-cavity flameholders

A scramjet combustor with double cavitybased flameholders was experimentally studied in a directconnected test bed with the inflow conditions of M = 2.64,Pt = 1.84 MPa,Tt = 1 300 K.Successful ignition and selfsustained combustion with room temperature kerosene was achieved using pilot hydrogen,and kerosene was vertically injected into the combustor through 4×φ 0.5 mm holes mounted on the wall.For different equivalence ratios and different injection schemes with both tandem cavities and parallel cavities,flow fields were obtained and compared using a high speed camera and a Schlieren system.Results revealed that the combustor inside the flow field was greatly influenced by the cavity installation scheme,cavities in tandem easily to form a single side flame distribution,and cavities in parallel are more likely to form a joint flame,forming a choked combustion mode.The supersonic combustion flame was a kind of diffusion flame and there were two kinds of combustion modes.In the unchoked combustion mode,both subsonic and supersonic combustion regions existed.While in the choked mode,the combustion region was fully subsonic with strong shock propagating upstream.Results also showed that there was a balance point between the boundary separation and shock enhanced combustion,depending on the intensity of heat release.     

Status of turbulence modeling for hypersonic propulsion flowpaths

This report provides an assessment of current turbulent flow calculation methods for hypersonic propulsion flowpaths, particularly the scramjet engine. Emphasis is placed on Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) methods, but some discussion of newer methods such as large eddy simulation (LES) is also provided. The report is organized by considering technical issues throughout the scramjet-powered vehicle flowpath, including laminar-to-turbulent boundary layer transition, shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interactions, scalar transport modeling (specifically the significance of turbulent Prandtl and Schmidt numbers), and compressible mixing. Unit problems are primarily used to conduct the assessment. In the combustor, results from calculations of a direct connect supersonic combustion experiment are also used to address the effects of turbulence model selection and in particular settings for the turbulent Prandtl and Schmidt numbers. It is concluded that RANS turbulence modeling shortfalls are still a major limitation to the accuracy of hypersonic propulsion simulations, whether considering individual components or an overall system. Newer methods such as LES-based techniques may be promising, but are not yet at a maturity to be used routinely by the hypersonic propulsion community. The need for fundamental experiments to provide data for turbulence model development and validation is discussed.

Methodology of a combined ground based testing and numerical modelling analysis of supersonic combustion flow paths

In the framework of the European Commission co-funded LAPCAT (Long-Term Advanced Propulsion Concepts and Technologies) project, the methodology of a combined ground-based testing and numerical modelling analysis of supersonic combustion flow paths was established. The approach is based on free jet testing of complete supersonic combustion ramjet (scramjet) configurations consisting of intake, combustor and nozzle in the High Enthalpy Shock Tunnel Göttingen (HEG) of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and computational fluid dynamics studies utilising the DLR TAU code. The capability of the established methodology is demonstrated by applying it to the flow path of the generic HyShot II scramjet flight experiment configuration.

OH-PLIF visualisation of radical farming supersonic combustion flows

Experimental investigations employing Planar Laser-induced fluorescence visualisation of the qualitative distribution of the OH radical (OH-PLIF), coupled with surface pressure measurements, have been made of flow in a generic, nominally two-dimensional inlet-injection radical farming supersonic combustion scramjet engine model. The test flows were provided by a hypersonic shock tunnel, and covered total enthalpies corresponding to the flight Mach number range 8.7–11.8 and approximately 150 kPa dynamic pressure. The surface pressure measurements displayed radical farming behaviour, that is a series of adjacent high and low pressure regions corresponding to successive shock/expansion structures, with no significant combustion-induced pressure rise until the second structure. OH-PLIF imaging between the first two structures provides the first direct experimental evidence of significant OH radical concentrations upstream of the ignition point in this mode of scramjet operation and shows that combustion reactions were occurring in highly localised regions in a complex turbulent and poorly micromixed fuel/air mixing layer confined to the fuel injection side of the combustor.

Nozzle design study for a quasi-axisymmetric scramjet-powered vehicle at Mach 7.9 flight conditions

A nozzle shape optimization study for a quasi-axisymmetric scramjet has been performed for a Mach 7.9 operating condition with hydrogen fuel, aiming at the application of a hypersonic airbreathing vehicle. In this study, the nozzle geometry which is parameterized by a set of design variables, is optimized for the single objective of maximum net thrust using an in-house CFD solver for inviscid flowfields with a simple force prediction methodology. The combustion is modelled using a simple chemical reaction code. The effects of the nozzle design on the overall vehicle performance are discussed. For the present geometry, net thrust is achieved for the optimized vehicle design. The results of the nozzle-optimization study show that performance is limited by the nozzle area ratio that can be incorporated into the vehicle without leading to too large a base diameter of the vehicle and increasing the external drag of the vehicle. This study indicates that it is very difficult to achieve positive thrust at Mach 7.9 using the basic geometry investigated.
