微槽-吸气组合控制平板边界层多模态稳定性研究

边界层转捩会使高超声速飞行器壁面摩阻和热流显著增加,因此在高超声速飞行器设计过程中往往占据重要地位.针对高超声速飞行器多模态转捩控制问题,提出了微槽道(1 mm)与边界层吸气的组合控制方法,并通过直接数值模拟和线性稳定性理论研究了Ma=4.5平板边界层的稳定性及组合控制效果.边界层在无控状态时,同时存在失稳的第一、二模态波,且二维第二模态波最不稳定;单纯施加微槽道控制时,边界层第二模态波会被抑制但第一模态波会被略微激发.对比而言,采用“微槽-吸气”组合控制后,不仅增强了对第二模态波的抑制效果,而且减弱了第一模态波的激发程度;同时随着吸气强度的增加,第二模态波不稳定区域明显收缩、频率显著增高,而第一模态波则变化不明显.相较于单纯的微槽道,吸气增强了“微槽吸收”与“声波散射”作用,因此中等吸气强度下该组合控制方法对第一和第二模态波的增长率分别实现了12.63%和28.02%的抑制效果.以上结果表明“微槽-吸气”组合控制手段具有适用宽频、布置区域灵活的优点,展现出了一定的多模态控制效果.

钝度对高超声速钝锥边界层稳定性的影响

采用直接数值模拟方法计算了8个不同球头半径的钝锥基本流,运用线性稳定性理论分析了钝度对边界层稳定性的影响。结果表明,随钝度增大,边界层内的不稳定区向下游移动,第二模态的最大增长率减小。在线性稳定性分析的基础上,研究了非线性扰动演化以及平均流修正对稳定性的影响。结果表明,在基本流中引入有限幅值扰动后,下游的平均流剖面会发生明显改变。流场稳定性发生显著变化,线性阶段最不稳定的第二模态波变得稳定,而第一模态波明显增长起来。第一模态波的快速增长使N值可以达到4,这将会对转捩有很大的促进作用。     

Evolution of disturbances in a laminarized supersonic boundary layer on a swept wing

Experimental data on stability of a three-dimensional supersonic boundary layer on a swept wing are presented. The experiments are performed on a swept wing model with a lenticular profile with a 40° sweep angle of the leading edge at a zero angle of attack. The supersonic boundary layer on the swept wing was laminarized with the use of distributed roughness. A pioneering study of interaction of traveling and stationary disturbances is performed. Some specific features of this interaction are identified. The main reason for turbulence emergence in a supersonic boundary layer on a swept wing is demonstrated to be secondary crossflow instability. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 49, No. 2, pp. 40–46, March–April, 2008.     

Experimental Investigation of the Development of Secondary Perturbations on a Swept Wing

The development of traveling secondary perturbations on streamwise structures in the swept wing boundary layer is investigated when the perturbations are excited by a periodic blowing-suction through an orifice on the model surface. The streamwise structures were generated by a roughness glued to the model surface. Qualitative and quantitative results on the development of the flow instability are obtained.     

Effect of surface temperature on the stability of the swept attachment line boundary layer

At fairly high Reynolds numbers instability may develop on the line of attachment of the potential flow to the leading edge of a swept wing and lead to a transition to boundary layer turbulence directly at the leading edge [1, 2]. Although the first results relating to the stability and transition of laminar flow at the leading edge of swept wings were obtained almost 30 years ago, the problem remains topical. The stability of the swept attachment line boundary layer was recently investigated numerically with allowance for compressibility effects [3, 4]. Below we examine the effect of surface temperature on the stability characteristics of the laminar viscous heat-conducting gas flow at the leading edge of a side slipping wing.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 6, pp. 78–82, November–December, 1990.     

Receptivity of the Swept Wing Boundary Layer to a Steady Flow Inhomogeneity

The boundary layer on a plate with an inclined blunt leading edge is investigated for a free-stream flow with a small span-periodic velocity inhomogeneity. This flow simulates the penetration of the outer turbulence into the swept wing boundary layer. It is shown that the boundary layer perturbations generated by the inhomogeneity generally have a streamwise velocity component significantly greater than the initial inhomogeneity amplitude. The dependence of the perturbations on the distance from the leading edge and the spanwise inhomogeneity period is found. It is shown that the swept wing boundary layer is less sensitive to the perturbation type in question than the straight wing boundary layer.     

Steady Streamwise Structures in the Boundary Layer on a Swept Wing with Elevated Turbulence of the Incoming Flow

Results for a turbulized flow past the windward side of a swept wing model are presented. Origination of steady disturbances in the form of streamwise structures is found. The greatest effect on the formation of these disturbances is exerted by the curvature of the external flow streamlines. The secondary flow in the boundary layer leads to an increase in the characteristic scale of disturbances in the transverse direction, as compared to the flow around the model at a zero yaw angle.     

Wave forerunners of streamwise structures in a swept wing boundary layer

In a model experiment wave packets (forerunners) have been detected for the first time in the flow regions preceding the fronts of streamwise structures in a swept wing boundary layer. The characteristics of the wave packets and the generating streamwise structures and the dynamics of their downstream development are investigated. It is shown that the forerunners can transform into turbulent spots thus leading to laminar-turbulent transition. Certain components of the forerunners are compared with a periodic instability wave.     

Excitation of controllable perturbations in the three-dimensional boundary layer using plasma actuators

Two versions of the structure of a multi-discharge plasma actuator intended to excite boundary layer perturbations in the neighborhood of the leading swept-wing edge are suggested. The actuator must prevent from appearance and development of the crossflow instability modes leading to laminarturbulent transition under the normal conditions. In the case of flow past a swept wing, excitation of controllable perturbations by the plasma actuator is simulated numerically in the steady-state approximation under the typical conditions of cruising flight of a subsonic aircraft. The local body force and thermal impact on the boundary layer flow which is periodic along the leading wing edge is considered. The calculations are carried out for the physical impact parameters realizable in the near-surface dielectric barrier discharge.     

Linear evolution of controlled disturbances in the supersonic boundary layer on a swept wing

The linear development of controlled disturbances in the three-dimensional supersonic boundary layer on a swept model wing with a sharp leading edge is experimentally investigated at the Mach number 2. The spatial-temporal and spectral-wave characteristics of the wave train of unstable disturbances are obtained. The asymmetry of these characteristics, due to the secondary flow in the three-dimensional boundary layer, is confirmed.     

Experimental study of nonlinear processes in a swept-wing boundary layer at the mach number M=2

Results of experiments aimed at studying the linear and nonlinear stages of the development of natural disturbances in the boundary layer on a swept wing at supersonic velocities are presented. The experiments are performed on a swept wing model with a lens-shaped airfoil, leading-edge sweep angle of 45°, and relative thickness of 3%. The disturbances in the flow are recorded by a constant-temperature hot-wire anemometer. For determining the nonlinear interaction of disturbances, the kurtosis and skewness are estimated for experimentally obtained distributions of the oscillating signal over the streamwise coordinate or along the normal to the surface. The disturbances are found to increase in the frequency range from 8 to 35 kHz in the region of their linear development, whereas enhancement of high-frequency disturbances is observed in the region of their nonlinear evolution. It is demonstrated that the growth of disturbances in the high-frequency spectral range (f > 35 kHz) is caused by the secondary instability.     

Vortex structure of separated flows on model wings at low freestream velocities

Flow past model wings is experimentally investigated in a subsonic wind tunnel at large angles of attack at which the laminar boundary layer separates near the leading edge of the wing (flow stall). The object of the study was the flow structure within the separation zone. The carbon-oil visualization of surface streamlines used in the experiments showed that in the separation zone there exist one or more pairs of large-scale vortices rotating in the wing plane. Certain general properties of the vortex structures in the separation zone are found to exist, whereas the flow patterns may differ depending on the model aspect ratio, the yaw angle, and other factors.
