An experimental study of aero-optical aberration and dithering of supersonic mixing layer via BOS

The optical performance of supersonic mixing layer is heavily deteriorated by the aero-optical aberration and dithering of coherent structures, but current measuring methods limit the spatiotemporal resolution in relevant studies. A high resolution whole-field aero-optical aberration and dithering measuring method based on the Background Orient Schlieren (BOS) technique was studied. The systematic structure, sensitivity and resolution of BOS are analyzed in this paper. The aero-optical aberration and dither...     

脉冲激励下超音速混合层涡结构的演化机理

采用大涡模拟方法对脉冲激励作用下的超音速混合层流场进行数值模拟,所得结果清晰展示了流场中涡结构的独特生长机理.基于涡核位置提取方法,对超音速混合层流场中涡结构的空间尺寸和瞬时对流速度等动态特性进行了定量计算.通过分析流场中涡结构的动态特性在不同频率脉冲激励下的变化,揭示出受脉冲激励超音速混合层流场中涡结构的演化机理:涡结构的生长不再是依靠相邻涡-涡结构之间的配对与融合,而是通过涡核外围的一串小涡旋结构被依次吸进涡核来实现,且受激励流场中各个涡结构的空间尺寸变化较小;流场中的涡结构数量与脉冲频率成正比例关系,而涡结构的空间尺寸与脉冲频率成反比例关系;涡结构的平均对流速度随脉冲频率的增大而减小.针对受脉冲激励超音速混合层,给出了能够表征涡结构特性与脉冲激励参数之间关系的方程式,即受激励流场中涡结构的平均对流速度与脉冲周期的乘积近似等于流场中涡结构的空间尺寸(涡结构平均直径).     

Statistics of the turbulent/non-turbulent interface in a spatially developing mixing layer

The thin interface separating the inner turbulent region from the outer irrotational fluid is analysed in a direct numerical simulation of a spatially developing turbulent mixing layer. A vorticity threshold is defined to detect the interface separating the turbulent from the non-turbulent regions of the flow, and to calculate statistics conditioned on the distance from this interface. The conditional statistics for velocity are in remarkable agreement with the results for other free shear flows available in the literature, such as turbulent jets and wakes. In addition, an analysis of the passive scalar field in the vicinity of the interface is presented. It is shown that the scalar has a jump at the interface, even stronger than that observed for velocity. The strong jump for the scalar has been observed before in the case of high Schmidt number (Sc). In the present study, such a strong jump is observed for a scalar with Sc ≈ 1. Conditional statistics of kinetic energy and scalar dissipation are presented. While the kinetic energy dissipation has its maximum far from the interface, the scalar dissipation is characterised by a strong peak very close to the interface. Finally, it is shown that the geometric features of the interfaces correlate with relatively large scale structures as visualised by low-pressure isosurfaces.     

Direct numerical simulation of a supersonic turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate and its analysis

In the past three decades, considerable progress has been made in the investigation of incompressible turbulent boundary layer through experiments, DNS and theoretical works, including: (1) the statistics characteristic and structure of turbulence; (2) the co-herent structures in turbulent flows; (3) turbulence modeling and the large eddy simula-tion (LES). In contrast, the progress was very slow for the compressible, in particular, the super-sonic turbulent boundary layer. Recent works on d…     

Analysing the structure of the optical path length of a supersonic mixing layer by using wavelet methods

The nano-particle-based planar laser scattering(NPLS) technique is used to measure the density distribution in the supersonic mixing layer of the convective Mach number 0.12,and the optical path difference(OPL),which is quite crucial for the study of aero-optics,is obtained by post processing.Based on the high spatiotemporal resolutions of the NPLS,the structure of the OPL is analysed using wavelet methods.The coherent structures of the OPL are extracted using three methods,including the methods of thresholding the coefficients of the orthogonal wavelet transform and the wavelet packet transform,and preserving a number of wavelet packet coefficients with the largest amplitudes determined by the entropy dimension.Their performances are compared,and the method using the wavelet packet is the best.Based on the viewpoint of multifractals,we study the OPL by the wavelet transform maxima method(WTMM),and the result indicates that its scaling behaviour is evident.     

Experimental and numerical investigation of flow separation in a supersonic nozzle

The flow in a two-dimensional symmetric convergent-divergent supersonic nozzle with and without a deflector at the exit plane was tested experimentally and numerically. Combined optoelectronic devices were used to demonstrate the possibilities of the shadow and schlieren methods and holographic interferometry for the flow visualization especially in the separation region. A series of experiments was performed in a trisonic wind tunnel (VTI, Beograd). The experimental results obtained using optical methods are compared with the pressure measurements and numerical calculations. Numerical results were obtained using a code for solving the average Navier-Stokes equations. Five structured meshes with different resolutions and two turbulent models were employed. The coupled influence of the mesh resolution and the order of accuracy of the used numerical scheme is analyzed.     

The investigation of coherent structures in the wall region of a supersonic turbulent boundary layer based on DNS database

Through temporal mode direct numerical simulation, flow field database of a fully developed turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate with Mach number 4.5 and Reynolds number Reθ =1094 has been obtained. Commonly used detection meth- ods in experiments are applied to detecting coherent structures in the flow field, and it is found that coherent structures do exist in the wall region of a supersonic turbulent boundary layer. The detected results show that a low-speed streak is de- tected by using the Mu-level method, the rising parts of this streak are detected by using the second quadrant method, and the crossing regions from a low-speed streak to the high-speed one are detected by using the VITA method respectively. Notwithstanding that different regions are detected by different methods, they are all accompanied by quasi-stream-wise vortex structures.     

Spectral characteristics of unstable flow in the mixing layer of supersonic underexpanded jet over its initial region

An experimental study of spectral characteristics of unstable flow in the mixing layer of supersonic axisymmetric underexpanded jets with Mach number M_a = 1 is reported. The destabilization of the flow is related to the formation, in the mixing layer of the jets, of disturbances in the form of streamwise vortical structures of the Taylor — Goertler type. As a result, in the mixing layer there forms an azimuthally non-uniform stationary distribution of total pressure. The Fourier transform of azimuthal sweeps of non-uniformity in pressure distributions was used to calculate the amplitude-wave spectra. An analysis of the spectral characteristics has allowed us to evaluate the longitudinal increment of amplitude growth of the disturbances and their dependence on the wavenumber and on the nozzle pressure ratio. The range of wavenumbers in which the streamwise vortical structures grow in amplitude is identified.

超声速平板圆台突起物绕流实验和数值模拟研究

高速飞行器表面不可避免的存在突起物并形成复杂流场, 从而引起飞行器气动特性和热载荷的变化; 同时, 突起物是流动控制的重要方法之一, 合适的突起物形状及安装位置对于改善冲压发动机进气道性能有重要意义. 本文采用基于纳米粒子的平面激光散射技术(NPLS)研究了马赫3.0来流边界层为层流的平板上三个不同高度圆台突起物绕流流场, 主要关注了突起物后方的尾迹边界层, 并采用高精度的显式五阶精度加权紧致非线性格式(WCNS-E-5)离散求解Navier-Stokes方程模拟了该流场. 获得了超声速圆台绕流精细流场结构, 观察到突起物后方尾迹区域边界层发展的过程. 结合实验和数值模拟结果可以发现, 当圆台高度接近或者小于当地边界层厚度时, 突起物对边界层的扰动非常弱, 圆台后方尾迹边界层能够维持较长距离的层流状态, 在边界层转捩阶段也有清晰的发卡涡结构出现; 反之, 边界层受到的扰动明显增大, 在突起物后方很快发展为湍流; 风洞噪声对本文研究圆台引起的边界层扰动有一定影响, 实验获得的边界层转捩位置要比数值结果靠前. 基于NPLS流场图像, 采用间歇性方法分析了圆台突起物后方边界层的特性, 对于高度大于边界层厚度的圆台其间歇性曲线较为接近并且更加饱满, 边界层的脉动也更为强烈.     

Silver intercalation in PbS1.18(TiS2)n, n=1, 2, misfit layer compounds

The reaction between metallic Ag and PbS_1.18(TiS₂)_n, n=1, 2, misfit layer compounds has been investigated by electrochemical technique, X-ray powder analysis and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that silver intercalation is possible only in the compound with n=2. The thermodynamic behavior and location of phase boundaries were studied in the temperature range 400–650 K. DC-conductivity and magnetic-susceptibility measurements were performed, and the data can be interpreted as an appearance of small polarons during silver insertion.     

Atomic layer epitaxy of AlP and (AlP)n(GaP)n superlattice using ethyldimethylamine alane as a new aluminum source

Atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) of AlP was realized using ethyldimethylamine alane (EDMAAl) as a new Al source. Self-limiting growth of AlP took place at one and two monolayers per ALE cycle. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy revealed that the amounts of incorporated impurities (carbon, hydrogen and oxygen) in ALE-grown AlP layers was greatly suppressed by using the new Al source, to nearly the same levels as in high-quality MOVPE-grown layers. We also achieved the successful ALE growth of (AlP)_n(GaP)_n short-period superlattices (SLs), taking advantage of the overlapping temperature windows of ALE-GaP and ALE-AlP. X-ray diffraction measurements showed reasonably good interface abruptness of SLs as low as 3. The PL emission peak from SLs involving Al-containing layers was observed in ALE growth for the first time.     

First-principles study on the structure instability and electronic structure of cubic Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3

We present first-principles calculations on the structure instability and the electronic structure properties of cubic Ba_0.5Sr_0.5TiO₃ (BST). The calculated total energy result shows that the Sr ions have a more important effect on the structure instability of BST system than the Ba ions. The off-center displacement of the Sr ions will lower the system energy and makes it instable. In order to understand the interaction between ions, the density of states and the charge density distribution were calculated. From the analysis of the density of states, we conclude that the hybridization between Ba p and O p is stronger than that between Sr p and O p. This is consistent with the analysis of the charge density distribution.

Scanning tunneling and atomic force microscopy study of the misfit layer compounds (LaS)1.14(NbS2)n (n=1, 2) and [(Pb,Sb)S)]1.14NbS2

The misfit layer compounds (LaS)_1.14(NbS₂)_n (n=1, 2) and [(Pb,Sb)S]_1.14NbS₂ were examined by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). In these compounds the NaCl-type double MS (M=La, Pb, Sb) layers (Q layers) alternate with the NbS₂ layers (H layers) made up of NbS₆ trigonal prisms. It was possible to record AFM and STM images for only the H layers for (LaS)_1.14(NbS₂)_n, but for both the H- and Q-layers for [(Pb,Sb)S]_1.14NbS₂. Partial and total electron density plots of the H and Q layers were calculated to interpret the observed STM and AFM images. The bright spots in the STM and AFM images of the H layer correspond to S atoms, and those of the Q layer to Pb and Sb atoms. The STM images for the Q layers of [(Pb,Sb)S]_1.14NbS₂ suggest that a short-range ordering of the Pb and Sb atoms occurs in the (Pb,Sb)S sheets of the Q layer.     

First principles studies on the electronic structures of LiMxFe1-xPO4 （M = Co, Ni and Rh）

The local crystal structures and electronic structures of LiMxFe1-xPO4 （M = Co, Ni, Rh） are studied through first-principles calculations. The lattice constants and unit cell volumes are smaller for the Co and Ni doped materials than for pure LiFePO4, while larger than for the Rh doped material. The local structures around M atoms in the doped materials are studied in details. The total density of states （DOS） and atomic projected DOS （PDOS） are all calculated and analysed in detail. The results give a reasonable prediction to the improvement of electronic conductivity through Fe-site doping in LiFePO4 material.

The structure and electronic configuration of Pd(C₆₀)₂, Pd₂(C₆₀)₂, Pd₃(C₆₀)₃, and Pd₆(C₆₀)₃ complexes have been simulated in terms of the density functional theory within the Perdew—Burke—Ernzerhof (PBE) approximation. The results of the calculation of the Pd₆(C₆₀)₃ trimer have been used to simulate the structure of the quasi-one-dimensional polymer [C₆₀Pd₃]_n molecule. For this macromolecule, the oneelectron energy levels have been calculated. It has been found that the band gap is 0.6 eV. The calculations have been performed using the crystal orbital method in the extended Hückel approximation. The possibility of using the obtained results for evaluating the catalytic properties of the studied complexes has been discussed.
