Experimental investigation of nanosecond discharge plasma aerodynamic actuation

In this paper we report on an experimental study of the characteristics of nanosecond pulsed discharge plasma aerodynamic actuation. The N 2 (C 3 Π u ) rotational and vibrational temperatures are around 430 K and 0.24 eV, respectively. The emission intensity ratio between the first negative system and the second positive system of N 2 , as a rough indicator of the temporally and spatially averaged electron energy, has a minor dependence on applied voltage amplitude. The induced flow direction is not parallel, but vertical to the dielectric layer surface, as shown by measurements of body force, velocity, and vorticity. Nanosecond discharge plasma aerodynamic actuation is effective in airfoil flow separation control at freestream speeds up to 100 m/s.

Electric and plasma characteristics of RF discharge plasma actuation under varying pressures

The electric and plasma characteristics of RF discharge plasma actuation under varying pressure have been investigated experimentally. As the pressure increases, the shapes of charge–voltage Lissajous curves vary, and the discharge energy increases. The emission spectra show significant difference as the pressure varies. When the pressure is 1000 Pa,the electron temperature is estimated to be 4.139 e V, the electron density and the vibrational temperature of plasma are peak4.71×10~(11)cm~(-3) and 1.27 e V, respectively. The ratio of spectral lines I391.4/peak I380.5which describes the electron temperature hardly changes when the pressure varies between 5000–30000 Pa, while it increases remarkably with the pressure below 5000 Pa, indicating a transition from filamentary discharge to glow discharge. The characteristics of emission spectrum are obviously influenced by the loading power. With more loading power, both of the illumination and emission spectrum intensity increase at 10000 Pa. The pin–pin electrode RF discharge is arc-like at power higher than 33 W, which results in a macroscopic air temperature increase.

等离子体气动激励控制激波的机理研究

针对等离子体气动激励控制激波的热效应机理和电离效应机理的争议,分别采用热阻塞模型和离子声波模型,理论推导出了不同机理前提下电弧等离子体对尖劈斜激波的影响规律.对于热效应机理,激波变化规律是激波起始点前移、形状不弯曲以及角度减小;对于电离效应机理,激波变化规律是激波起始点仍维持在尖劈前缘点处、形状分为两段发生弯曲以及起始段的角度增大.针对该对立的理论推导结果,进行了电弧等离子体控制尖劈斜激波的超声速风洞实验研究,实验观察到尖劈斜激波起始点前移4 mm,激波角度减小8.6%,激波形状未发生弯曲.以热效应机理为前提推导出的理论结果与该实验结果相符,从而验证了等离子体气动激励控制激波是热效应机理在起主要作用. 关键词： 等离子体气动激励 激波 热效应 电离效应     

Thermal and induced flow characteristics of radio frequency surface dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuation at atmospheric pressure

Thermal and induced flow velocity characteristics of radio frequency(RF) surface dielectric barrier discharge(SDBD)plasma actuation are experimentally investigated in this paper. The spatial and temporal distributions of the dielectric surface temperature are measured with the infrared thermography at atmospheric pressure. In the spanwise direction, the highest dielectric surface temperature is acquired at the center of the high voltage electrode, while it reduces gradually along the chordwise direction. The maximum temperature of the dielectric surface raises rapidly once discharge begins.After several seconds(typically 100 s), the temperature reaches equilibrium among the actuator's surface, plasma, and surrounding air. The maximum dielectric surface temperature is higher than that powered by an AC power supply in dozens of k Hz. Influences of the duty cycle and the input frequency on the thermal characteristics are analyzed. When the duty cycle increases, the maximum dielectric surface temperature increases linearly. However, the maximum dielectric surface temperature increases nonlinearly when the input frequency varies from 0.47 MHz to 1.61 MHz. The induced flow velocity of the RF SDBD actuator is 0.25 m/s.

纳秒脉冲放电处理有机染料废水的实验研究

随着印染行业的快速发展,印染废水的排放与日俱增。由于废水中的有机物具有成分复杂、难以降解的特点,若未经有效处理直接排放,会对生态环境造成严重的污染和危害。试验设计了一种多针-网式反应器循环处理有机组分为酸性红73（AR73）的模拟废水,其采用自行设计的基于TLT（Transmission Line Transformer）的高压重频纳秒脉冲电源驱动。电源可以产生峰值电压为50 kV,脉宽40 ns,上升沿20 ns的纳秒脉冲信号,工作频率可达500 Hz。试验考察了峰值电压、放电频率、染料初始质量浓度及作用时间等因素对AR73降解效果的影响。为评价处理效果,采用紫外分光光度法分别测量了废水中剩余染料浓度、过氧化氢浓度等指标。结果表明,在初始浓度30 mg/L,循环流量3.4 L/min,放电间距30 mm,峰值电压44.26 kV,放电频率200 Hz条件下处理30 min,AR73降解率可以达到83.20%,单次脉冲注入能量为11.73 mJ,过氧化氢浓度为47.36 μmol/L,反应器脱色能效（G₅₀）可以达到31.07 g·kW⁻¹·h⁻¹。增大放电电压可以进一步提高AR73降解率,溶液中活性物质浓度提高,但是能量效率有所下降。     

Electrical and optical characteristics of the radio frequency surface dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuation

Electrical characteristics and optical emission spectrum of the radio frequency(RF) surface dielectric barrier discharge(SDBD) plasma actuation are investigated experimentally in this paper. Influences of operating pressure, duty cycle and load power on the discharge are analyzed. When the operating pressure reaches 30 kPa, the discharge energy calculated from the Charge–Voltage(Q–V) Lissajous figure increases significantly, while the effective capacitance decreases remarkably. As the duty cycle of the applied voltage increases, the voltage–current waveforms, the area of Q–V loop and the capacity show no distinct changes. Below 40 W, effective capacitance increases with the increase of load power, but it almost remains unchanged when load power is between 40 W and 95 W. The relative intensity I_(391.4)~peak/I_(380.5)~peak changes little as the operating pressure varies from 4 kPa to 100 kPa, while it rises evidently with the pressure below 4 kPa, which indicates that the RF discharge mode shifts from filamentary discharge to glow discharge at around 4 kPa. With the increase of load power, the relative intensity I_(391.4)~peak/I_(380.5)~peak rises evidently. Additionally, the relative intensity I_(371.1)~peak/I_(380.5)~peak is insensitive to the pressure,the duty cycle, and the load power.     

基于等离子体气动激励的斜劈诱导激波控制

基于弧光等离子体气动激励,采用不同的放电通道间距、放电通道数、放电直流输入电压、斜劈劈角、有无磁场作用等激励条件,实验研究了在超音速来流条件下(马赫数为2.2)斜激波位置、角度、强度的变化规律。结果表明:施加等离子体气动激励后,激波的起始位置平均前移1～8 mm,激波角平均减小4%～8%,激波强度平均减弱8%～26%。这主要是由于等离子体气动激励产生高温高压的表面等离子体层,使边界层分离点逆气流前移,改变了原有激波系结构,使原有的激波位置前移,激波角减小;同时由于局部的高温导致当地音速增大,使得当地马赫数减小,上述两个原因均可导致激波强度减弱。

Unmanned air vehicle flow separation control using dielectric barrier discharge plasma at high wind speed

The present paper described an experimental investigation of separation control of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)at high wind speeds.The plasma actuator was based on Dielectric Barrier Discharge(DBD)and operated in a steady manner.The flow over a wing of UAV was performed with smoke flow visualization in theΦ0.75 m low speed wind tunnel to reveal the flow structure over the wing so that the locations of plasma actuators could be optimized.A full model of the UAV was experimentally investigated in theΦ3.2 m low speed wind tunnel using a six-component internal strain gauge balance.The effects of the key parameters,including the locations of the plasma actuators,the applied voltage amplitude and the operating frequency,were obtained.The whole test model was made of aluminium and acted as a cathode of the actuator.The results showed that the plasma acting on the surface of UAV could obviously suppress the boundary layer separation and reduce the model vibration at the high wind speeds.It was found that the maximum lift coefficient of the UAV was increased by 2.5%and the lift/drag ratio was increased by about 80%at the wind speed of 100 m/s.The control mechanism of the plasma actuator at the test configuration was also analyzed.
