本文对后台阶分离流动中涡结构的演变进行了大涡模拟，研究了流场结构的变化规律。详细讨论了随着雷诺数的增加流场结构的典型特征的变化规律，指出流场中的涡结构随着雷诺数的增大变得十分复杂和丰富，回流区的数目、大小及其出现的位置也显著地不同。这些结果与已有的一些实验值和流场显示结果是吻合的。在此基础上，进一步研究了高雷诺数时流场中大尺度涡结构的瞬时发展和演化过程，展示了其中大涡的产生、追随、吸引、合并和破碎等过程。对于高雷诺数情况，对大涡模拟得到的数值结果进行了统计，得到的时均速度分布以及台阶后方的回流区长度与现有的其他实验结果符合得很好。本研究是针对后台阶分离流动深入开展湍流控制以及两相流动研究的基础。     

翼型绕流的电磁力控制

将表面包覆电磁激活板的翼型,按一定的攻角,置于流动的弱电介质溶液中,电磁激活板可产生作用于流体的切向电磁力(Lorentz力),从而改变流体边界层的结构. 在转动水槽中,对翼型绕流及电磁力控制下的绕流形态进行了实验研究. 结果表明,未加电磁力时,前缘涡的脱落点是不确定的,与流场具体条件有关,而后缘涡仅在尖角处脱落. 前缘涡与后缘涡相互影响,并周期性的脱体,在尾部形成涡街. 施加电磁力后,当力的方向与流动方向相同时,可以在一定程度上抑制分离,消除涡街,其效果与减小攻角类似. 加反向电磁力时,则相当于加大攻角,在翼型体的背风面形成涡街.

HLLE++格式在高马赫数空腔流动模拟中的应用

空腔流动存在剪切层运动、涡脱落与破裂,以及激波与激波、激波与剪切层、激波与膨胀波和激波/涡/剪切层相互干扰等现象,流动非常复杂,特别是高马赫数(M>2)时,剪切层和激波更强,激波与激波干扰更严重,对数值格式的要求更高,既需要格式耗散小,对分离涡等有很高的模拟精度,又需要格式在激波附近具有较大的耗散,可以很好地捕捉激波,防止非物理解的出现。Roe和HLLC等近似Riemann解格式在高马赫数强激波处可能会出现红玉现象,而HLLE++格式大大改善了这种缺陷,在捕捉高超声速激波时避免了红玉现象的发生,同时还保持在光滑区域的低数值耗散特性。本文在结构网格下HLLE++格式的基础上,通过改进激波探测的求解,建立了基于非结构混合网格的HLLE++计算方法,通过无粘斜坡算例,验证了HLLE++格式模拟高马赫数流动的能力,并应用于高马赫数空腔流动的数值模拟,开展了网格和湍流模型影响研究,验证了方法模拟高马赫数空腔流动的可靠性和有效性。

Investigation of three-dimensional dynamic stall on an airfoil using fast-response pressure-sensitive paint

Dynamic stall on a pitching OA209 airfoil in a wind tunnel is investigated at Mach 0.3 and 0.5 using high-speed pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) and pressure measurements. At Mach 0.3, the dynamic stall vortex was observed to propagate faster at the airfoil midline than at the wind-tunnel wall, resulting in a “bowed” vortex shape. At Mach 0.5, shock-induced stall was observed, with initial separation under the shock foot and subsequent expansion of the separated region upstream, downstream and along the breadth of the airfoil. No dynamic stall vortex could be observed at Mach 0.5. The investigation of flow control by blowing showed the potential advantages of PSP over pressure transducers for a complex three-dimensional flow.     

Influence of pitching angle of incidence on the dynamic stall behavior of a symmetric airfoil

This study presents the influence of pitch angle of an airfoil on its near-field vortex structure as well as the aerodynamic loads during a dynamic stall process. Dynamic stall behavior in a sinusoidally pitching airfoil is usually analyzed at low to medium reduced frequencies and with the maximum angle of attack of the airfoil not exceeding 25°. In this work, we study dynamic stall of a symmetric airfoil at medium to high reduced frequencies even as the maximum angle of attack goes from 25° to 45°. The evolution and growth of the laminar separation bubble, also known as a dynamic stall vortex, at the leading edge and the trailing edge are studied as the pitch cycle goes from the minimum to the maximum angle of attack. The effect of reduced frequencies on the vortex structure as well as the aerodynamic load coefficients is investigated. The reduced frequency is shown to be a bifurcation parameter triggering period doubling behavior. However, the bifurcation pattern is dependent on the variation of the pitch angle of incidence of the airfoil.     

Investigation of the unsteady flow velocity field above an airfoil pitching under deep dynamic stall conditions

The unsteady flow field above a NACA 0012 airfoil pitching under deep dynamic stall conditions has been investigated in a low-speed wind tunnel by means of particle image velocimetry. The measurements of the instantaneous flow velocity field show the characteristic features of the dynamic stall process: formation and development of an organized vortex structure for increasing incidences and the subsequent separation. Vorticity and divergence estimated from the measured data give a good insight into the complex flow behaviour during the downstroke motion. Furthermore, small-scale structures could be observed in the separated flow field and even within the dynamic stall vortex.The authors would like to thank Dr. Schäfer (ISL) for his support in organizing the cooperative measurements, Mr. Seyb (DLR) for his help during the recording of PIV images, Dr. Bretthauer (DLR) and Mr. Vollmers (DLR) for his assistance during the phase of evaluation and post processing of the PIV recordings and Dr. Geißler (DLR) for helpful discussions on the dynamic stall problem.

Lift enhancement of airfoil and tip flow control for wind turbine

Two techniques that improve the aerodynamic performance of wind turbine airfoils are described. The airfoil S809, designed specially for wind turbine blades, and the airfoil FX60-100, having a higher lift-drag ratio, are selected to verify the flow control techniques. The flow deflector, fixed at the leading edge, is employed to control the boundary layer separation on the airfoil at a high angle of attack. The multi-island genetic algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of the flow deflector. The results indicate that the flow deflector can suppress the flow separation, delay the stall, and enhance the lift. The characteristics of the blade tip vortex, the wake vortex, and the surface pressure distributions of the blades are analyzed. The vortex diffuser, set up at the blade tip, is employed to control the blade tip vortex. The results show that the vortex diffuser can increase the total pressure coefficient of the core of the vortex, decrease the strength of the blade tip vortex, lower the noise, and improve the efficiency of the blade.     

Assessment of 2D/3D numerical modeling for deep dynamic stall experiments

The results of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations in two and three spatial dimensions are compared to pressure measurements and particle image velocimetry (PIV) flow surveys to assess the suitability of numerical models for the simulation of deep dynamic stall experiments carried out on a pitching NACA 23012 airfoil. A sinusoidal pitching motion with a 10° amplitude and a reduced frequency of 0.1 is imposed around two different mean angles of attack of 10° and 15°. The comparison of the airloads curves and of the pressure distribution over the airfoil surface shows that a three-dimensional numerical model can better reproduce the flow structures and the airfoil performance for the deep dynamic stall regime. Also, the vortical structures observed by PIV in the flow field are better captured by the three-dimensional model. This feature highlighted the relevance of three-dimensional effects on the flow field in deep dynamic stall.     

Thrust generation by an airfoil in hover modes

A small airfoil is operated in combined harmonic plunging and pitching motions to generate thrust in a still air environment. By full utilization of dynamic stall vortices large thrust coefficients were attained. The vortical signature of thrust is a simple vortex street with the character of a jet stream.On sabbatical leave from the University of Colorado at Boulder.
