Calculation of the pressure on the side surface of bodies consisting of a spherical segment joined to an inverted cone in a supersonic stream

The results of investigations of inviscid flow over inverted cones with nose consisting of a spherical segment were published for the first time in Soviet literature in [1–4]. In the present paper, a numerical solution to this problem is obtained using the improved algorithms of [5, 6], which have proved themselves well in problems of exterior flow over surfaces with positive angles of inclination to the oncoming flow. It is shown that the Mach number 2 M , equilibrium and nonequilibrium physicochemical transformations in air (H = 60 km, V = 7.4 km/sec, R₀ = 1 m), and the angle of attack 0 40° influence the investigated pressure distributions. A comparison of the results of the calculations with drainage experiments for M = 6, = 0-25° confirms the extended region of applicability of the developed numerical methods. Also proposed is a simple correlation of the dependence on the Mach number in the range 1.5 M of the shape of the shock wave near a sphere in a stream of ideal gas with adiabatic exponent = 1.4.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 178–183, January–February, 1981.     

Unsteady effects in a thin viscous shock layer near a three-dimensional stagnation point of a body moving with given acceleration and deceleration

An unsteady viscous shock layer near a stagnation point is studied. The Navier-Stokes equations are analyzed in the limit 1, Re₀ , df/dt = ^n-mF(t/^m). The Reynolds number Re₀ is defined in the paper by Eq. (1.3) (df/dt is the velocity of the body with respect to an inertial frame of reference moving with the original steady velocity –V'_t8, ₂ = ( – 1)/( + 1)). Various flow regimes in the case 1, l, n max(2m, m + 1), m 0, where ² = 1/Re₀ are analyzed. Equations are derived that generalize the asymptotic analysis to the case of a viscous unsteady flow of gas in a thin three-dimensional shock layer. The problem of a thin unsteady viscous shock layer near the stagnation point of a body with two curvatures is formulated. Examples of numerical solution are given for different ratios of the principal curvatures of the body, the wall temperature, the parameters of the original steady flow, and the acceleration and deceleration regimes.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 100–111, March–April, 1981.I thank Yu.

Investigation of Aerodynamic Drag of Two Bodies in Trans‐ and Supersonic Flows

Results of experimental investigations of trans or supersonic flow around two bodies (cone–disk or sphere–disk) connected by a cylindrical rod along the axis of symmetry are presented. The special features of the flow are analyzed. It is found that the dependence of the drag coefficient C_x of a pair of bodies on the Mach number within the range 0.6 M 1.7 is nonmonotonic. The reasons for the hysteresis in the dependences C_x(M) for two bodies at the stages of flow acceleration and deceleration and discrete variation of the Mach number are clarified. The influence of cone angles and sizes of both bodies on the drag coefficient is estimated.     

Investigation of a “hanging” shock wave near a generating point

The hodograph method is used to plot a hanging shock wave in the plane nonequilibrium supersonic flow of an ideal gas. This paper considers the general case of an analytical solution in the plane of the hodograph at the point of generation of the shock wave. A type of limiting line is established which makes it possible to plot a shock wave (it is found that the shock wave may not extend over the whole flow, with a convolution in the physical plane).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 6, pp. 30–37, November–December, 1971.

Outflow of an unexpanded jet into counter supersonic and subsonic flows

The article gives the results of an experimental investigation of the geometric structure of an opposing unexpanded jet. It discusses flow conditions with interaction between the jet and sub- and supersonic flows. It is shown that, with the outflow of an unexpanded jet counter to a supersonic flow, there are unstable flow conditions. For stable flow conditions with one roll, dependences are proposed determining the form of a jet in a supersonic opposing flow. A generalized dependence is obtained for the distribution of the pressure at the surface of a body with a jet, flowing out counter to a subsonic flow. The range of change in the determining parameters are the following: Mach numbers at outlet cross section of nozzle, M _a = 1 and 3; Mach numbers of opposing flow, M = 0.6–0.9 and 2.9; degree of effectiveness of jet, n = p _a /p = 0.5–800 (p _a and p are the static pressures at the outlet cross section of the nozzle and in the opposing flow); the ratios of the specific heat capacities, _a = = 1.4; the drag temperatures of the jet and the flow, T_o = T_oa = 290°K.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 89–96, January–February, 1977.     

Gasdynamics of a plasma in a multiple-mirror magnetic trap with “point” mirrors

Equations are derived for the gasdynamics of a dense plasma confined by a multiple-mirror magnetic field. The limiting cases of large and small mean free paths have been analyzed earlier: ₀ and k, where is the length of an individual mirror machine, ₀ is the size of the mirror, and k is the mirror ratio. The present work is devoted to a study of the intermediate range of mean free paths ₀ k. It is shown that in this region of the parameters the process of expansion of the plasma has a diffusional nature, and the coefficients of transfer of the plasma along the magnetic field are calculated.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 6, pp. 14–19, November–December, 1974.The authors thank D.

Oscillatory free convection heat transfer along a semi-infinite vertical plate

Summary The fluctuating free convection flow along a semi-infinite vertical plate is considered when the plate temperature is of the form T _p –T =(T ₀ –T ) where 0 < 1, denotes the frequency of oscillation and the mean temperature T ₀–T is proportional to ⁿ (0 n < 1). Flow and temperature fields have been obtained by means of two asymptotic expansions. For small values of the frequency parameter , a regular expansion is obtained while for large the method of matched asymptotic expansion is used. It is found that the skin friction and the rate of heat transfer obtained from two expansions overlap satisfactorily for a certain value of . For n=1 the flow governing equations to a semisimilar form, and have been solved by finite difference method. The results obtained from the series and the finite difference methods are in good agreement.

Oszillierender Wärmeübergang an einer halbunendlichen senkrechten Platte bei freier Konvektion

Übersicht Betrachtet wird die fluktuierende freie Konvektionsströmung längs einer halbunendlichen senkrechten Platte, deren Temperatur dem Gesetz T _p –T =(T ₀–T ) [1+ sin {ie1-03}] folgt, wobei 0 < 1 gelte, {ie1-04} die Frequenz ist und der Temperatur-Mittelwert T ₀–T proportional zu ⁿ (0 n < 1) ist. Mit Hilfe zweier asymptotischer Entwicklungen werden die Strömungs- und Temperaturfelder gewonnen. Für kleine Werte des Frequenzparameters wird eine gewöhnliche Entwicklung benutzt, für große die Methode angepaßter asymptotischer Entwicklungen. Es stellt sich heraus, daß die Oberflächenreibung und die Wärmeübergangsrate aus zwei Entwicklungen für ein bestimmtes zufriedenstellend aufeinander fallen. Für n=1 werden die Grundgleichungen zueinander ähnlich und werden nach der Finite-Differenzen-Methode gelöst. Die Ergebnisse nach den Reihenentwicklungen und der Finite-Differenzen-Methode stimmen gut überein.

Construction of exact numerical solutions of the stationary traveling wave type for viscous thin films

An effective numerical procedure, based on the Galerkin method, for finding solutions of the stationary traveling wave type in the complete formulation is proposed for the case of viscous liquid films. Examples of a viscous film flowing freely down a vertical surface have been calculated. The calculations have been made for various values of the dimensionless surface tension , including =0. The method makes it possible to predict a number of bifurcations that occur as decreases. The existence of numerous families of stationary traveling waves when 1 was demonstrated in [6]. The present study shows that as 1 all but one of these families of wave solutions disappear. The shape of the periodic and solitary waves and the pressure distribution in the film are found for various . When =0 and the wave number is fairly small, the periodic solution has a singularity, as predicted in [14]: at the crest of the wave a corner point appears; the angle between the tangents at this point =140–150. The method proposed can be used to calculate other wavy film flows.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 3, pp. 94–100, May–June, 1990.     

Effect of a longitudinal magnetic field on the characteristics of a stabilized channel arc

The results of calculations of the temperature profiles and volt-ampere characteristics of a long cylindrical argon arc in a longitudinal uniform magnetic field are presented. The calculation was made for the following parameters: pressure p =0.1–10.0 atm; temperatures T = 1000-20,000°K; magnetic field induction B =0-10 T; diameter of cylindrical channel d = 1.0 cm. It is shown that for strongly radiating arcs (p1.0 atm) the temperature profiles become more inflated with an increase in the magnetic field, while for weakly radiating arcs (p 0.1 atm) the appearance of loops in the volt-ampere characteristics is typical for certain conditions (14,000T20,000°K, B1.0 T), indicating the impossibility of arcing under these conditions.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 2, pp. 147–153, March–April, 1975.     

About the Regularized Navier–Stokes Equations

The first goal of this paper is to study the large time behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the 3-dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes system. The Marcinkiewicz space L^3, is used to prove some asymptotic stability results for solutions with infinite energy. Next, this approach is applied to the analysis of two classical regularized Navier–Stokes systems. The first one was introduced by J. Leray and consists in mollifying the nonlinearity. The second one was proposed by J.-L. Lions, who added the artificial hyper-viscosity (–)^{/ 2}, > 2 to the model. It is shown in the present paper that, in the whole space, solutions to those modified models converge as t toward solutions of the original Navier–Stokes system.     

Stability and Transition on a Swept Cylinder in a Supersonic Flow

Results of experimental investigations of the evolution of natural disturbances and laminar–turbulent transition in a supersonic boundary layer on the attachment line of a circular cylinder with a sweep angle of 68° and a freestream Mach number M = 2 are presented. The experimental studies are supplemented by calculations of the mean flow and stability characteristics. Flow regimes in the boundary layer on the attachment line are determined by a hotwire technique as functions of the Reynolds number and height of twodimensional roughness elements. The results are compared with NASA (Ames) experiments.     

Two-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media II: Numerical experiments for flow perpendicular to a stratified system

In this work, we make use of numerical experiments to explore our original theoretical analysis of two-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media (Quintard and Whitaker, 1988). The calculations were carried out with a two-region model of a stratified system, and the parameters were chosen be consistent with practical problems associated with groundwater flows and petroleum reservoir recovery processes. The comparison between theory (the large-scaled averaged equations) and experiment (numerical solution of the local volume averaged equations) has allowed us to identify conditions for which the quasi-static theory is acceptable and conditions for which a dynamic theory must be used. Byquasi-static we mean the following: (1) The local capillary pressure,everywhere in the averaging volume, can be set equal to the large-scale capillary pressure evaluated at the centroid of the averaging volume and (2) the large-scale capillary pressure is given by the difference between the large-scale pressures in the two immiscible phases, and is therefore independent of gravitational effects, flow effects and transient effects. Bydynamic, we simply mean a significant departure from the quasi-static condition, thus dynamic effects can be associated with gravitational effects, flow effects and transient effects. To be more precise about the quasi-static condition we need to refer to the relation between the local capillary pressure and the large-scale capillary pressure derived in Part I (Quintard and Whitaker, 1990). Herep _c ¦_y represents the local capillary pressure evaluated at a positiony relative to the centroid of the large-scale averaging volume, and {p _c }¦_x represents the large-scale capillary pressure evaluated at the centroid.In addition to{p _c } ^c being evaluated at the centroid, all averaged terms on the right-hand side of Equation (1) are evaluated at the centroid. We can now write the equations describing the quasi-static condition as , , This means that the fluids within an averaging volume are distributed according to the capillary pressure-saturation relationwith the capillary pressure held constant. It also means that the large-scale capillary pressure is devoid of any dynamic effects. Both of these conditions represent approximations (see Section 6 in Part I) and one of our main objectives in this paper is to learn something about the efficacy of these approximations. As a secondary objective we want to explore the influence of dynamic effects in terms of our original theory. In that development only the first four terms on the right hand side of Equation (1) appeared in the representation for the local capillary pressure. However, those terms will provide an indication of the influence of dynamic effects on the large-scale capillary pressure and the large-scale permeability tensor, and that information provides valuable guidance for future studies based on the theory presented in Part I.Roman Letters A scalar that maps {}*/t onto - A scalar that maps {}*/t onto - A interfacial area between the -region and the -region contained within, m² - A interfacial area between the -region and the -region contained within, m² - A interfacial area between the -region and the -region contained within, m² - a vector that maps ({}*/t) onto , m - a vector that maps ({}*/t) onto , m - b vector that maps ({p}– g) onto , m - b vector that maps ({p}– g) onto , m - B second order tensor that maps ({p}– g) onto , m² - B second order tensor that maps ({p}– g) onto , m² - c vector that maps ({}*/t) onto , m - c vector that maps ({}*/t) onto , m - C second order tensor that maps ({}*/t) onto , m² - C second order tensor that maps ({}*/t) onto . m² - D third order tensor that maps ( ) onto , m - D third order tensor that maps ( ) onto , m - D second order tensor that maps ( ) onto , m² - D second order tensor that maps ( ) onto , m² - E third order tensor that maps () onto , m - E third order tensor that maps () onto , m - E second order tensor that maps () onto - E second order tensor that maps () onto - p _c =(), capillary pressure relationship in the-region - p _c =(), capillary pressure relationship in the-region - g gravitational vector, m/s² - largest of either or - - - i unit base vector in thex-direction - I unit tensor - K local volume-averaged-phase permeability, m² - K local volume-averaged-phase permeability in the-region, m² - K local volume-averaged-phase permeability in the-region, m² - {K } large-scale intrinsic phase average permeability for the-phase, m² - K –{K }, large-scale spatial deviation for the-phase permeability, m² - K –{K }, large-scale spatial deviation for the-phase permeability in the-region, m² - K –{K }, large-scale spatial deviation for the-phase permeability in the-region, m² - K ^* large-scale permeability for the-phase, m² - L characteristic length associated with local volume-averaged quantities, m - characteristic length associated with large-scale averaged quantities, m - I _i i = 1, 2, 3, lattice vectors for a unit cell, m - l characteristic length associated with the-region, m - ;

Direct derivation of the two-shaft system balance conditions for the second order reciprocal inertia forces on the V-type eight cylinders internal combustion engines with a plane crankshaft

By employing the four shafts balance concept paper [1] has reported a balance regime for the second order reciprocal inertia forces on the V-type eight cylinder internal combustion engines with a plane crankshaft. Thereafter, paper [2] has acquired a two-shafts balance regime, but through a rather tedious roudabout degenerating manipulation. The present article has, but starting out directly from the two-shafts balance concept, successfully acquired the same results as those in paper [2]. In addition, we propose, herein, a third balance system which might be, in general, called the slipper balance regime.
