基于介质阻挡放电等离子体的体积力气动激励机理,仿真研究了等离子体增升减阻技术对沿螺旋桨桨径方向均匀分布的10个叶素气动特性的改善效果.采用叶素理论,对比分析了等离子体对螺旋桨整体气动性能的提高效果.主要结论有:桨尖和桨叶根部的叶素容易发生气动分离现象,其中根部叶素处于负攻角的工况中；采用介质阻挡放电等离子体流动控制技术可以完全抑制流动分离不太严重的桨叶中部区域的叶素气动分离,对桨尖处翼型的严重气动分离不能完全抑制但也有改善作用,但对处于负攻角工况的叶素作用不大；等离子体增升减阻技术确实可以提高螺旋桨的气动性能,对本文所研究的情况,螺旋桨的拉力和效率分别提高了28.27％和 12.3％.

Numerical analysis of the effect of plasma flow control on enhancing the aerodynamic characteristics of stratospheric screw propeller

Based on the body force aerodynamic actuation mechanism of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma, the effect of plasma flow control on enhancing the aerodynamic characteristics of ten blade elements equably along the stratospheric screw propeller blade was numerical studied. Then the effect of plasma flow control enhancing the aerodynamic characteristics of stratospheric screw propeller was compared that by the blade element theory method. The results show that the flow separate phenomena will easily happen in the root region and top end region of screw propeller, and the blade elements in the root region of screw propeller may work on the negative attack angle condition. DBD plasma flow control can entirely restrain the faintish flow separate phenomena in middle region of screw propeller. Although DBD plasma flow control can not entirely restrain the badly flow separate phenomena in top end region of screw propeller, it also can enhance the aerodynamic characteristics of blade elements in these regions in same degree. But effect of DBD plasma flow control on enhancing the aerodynamic characteristics of the blade elements working on the negative attack angle condition is ineffectively. It can be concluded that DBD plasma flow control can enhance the aerodynamic characteristics of stratospheric screw propeller, the thrust of the whole propeller and the propeller efficiency in the case of plasma on will increases by a factor of 28.27% and 12.3% respectively compared with that in the case of plasma off studied.
