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.

发展更高性能的吸气式高超动力成为未来高超声速飞行器研制的重中之重。现有基于煤油燃料的超燃冲压发动机,主要以爆燃模式组织燃烧,在高来流马赫数(Ma≥8)条件下,将面临高来流总温带来的高温离解和化学非平衡效应所带来燃料的能量难以充分释放和利用的难题,相比之下,斜爆震组织燃烧更接近于等容燃烧,具有燃烧释热速率快、热循环效率高等优势,是一种可应用于高马赫数吸气式动力的理想燃烧模式。斜爆震发动机能够显著缩短燃烧室长度,减少释热面积,是高马赫数飞行器极具潜力的吸气式动力方案。其中,斜爆震发动机内流道各部件的匹配设计、燃料喷注-混合、斜爆震波的起爆与驻定等是斜爆震发动机研制的关键技术,是当前高超声速领域的研究热点。但由于其面临的高速、高总温总压的来流条件以及爆震波在流场中的强间断与高速传播特性等,现有试验与数值模拟研究手段难以开展精细的燃烧流动机制研究,进而限制了相关控制机理的揭示与高精度模型的建立,使得斜爆震发动机工程研制较为困难,当前研究仍存在许多值得探讨的地方,文章在综述的同时对下一步研究提出相关建议。

Numerical simulation of supersonic flow past reentry capsules

The flow fields over ARD (ESA's atmospheric reentry demonstrator), OREX (orbital reentry experiments) and spherically blunted cone-flare reentry configurations are numerically obtained by solving time-dependent, axisymmetric, compressible Navier–Stokes equations for freestream Mach numbers range of 1.2–6.0. The fluid dynamics are discretized in spatial coordinates employing a finite volume approach which reduces the governing equations to semi discretized ordinary differential equations. Temporal integration is performed using the multistage Runge–Kutta time-stepping scheme. A local time step is used to achieve steady-state solution. The numerical simulation is carried out on a structured grid. The flow-field features around the reentry capsule, such as bow shock wave, sonic line, expansion fan and recirculating flow in the base region are obtained. A good agreement is found between the calculated value of aerodynamic drag coefficient of the spherically blunted cone/fare reentry configuration with the experimental data. The effects of geometrical parameters, such as radius of the spherical cap, half cone angle, with sharp shoulder edge and with smooth shoulder edge on the flow-field have been numerically investigated for various reentry configuration which will be useful for optimization of the reentry capsule.

Experimental investigation of ram accelerator propulsion modes

Experimental investigations on the propulsive modes of the ram accelerator are reviewed in this paper. The ram accelerator is a ramjet-in-tube projectile accelerator whose principle of operation is similar to that of a supersonic air-breathing ramjet. The projectile resembles the centerbody of a ramjet and travels through a stationary tube filled with a premixed gaseous fuel and oxidizer mixture. The combustion process travels with the projectile, generating a pressure distribution which produces forward thrust on the projectile. Several modes of ram accelerator operation are possible which are distinguished by their operating velocity range and the manner in which the combustion process is initiated and stabilized. Propulsive cycles utilizing subsonic, thermally choked combustion theoretically allow projectiles to be accelerated to the Chapman-Jouguet(C-J) detonation speed of a gaseous propellant mixture. In the superdetonative velocity range, the projectile is accelerated while always traveling faster than the C-J speed, and in the transdetonative regime (85–115 % of C-J speed) the projectile makes a smooth transition from a subdetonative to a superdetonative propulsive mode. This paper examines operation in these three regimes of flow using methane and ethylene based propellant mixtures in a 16 m long, 38 mm bore ram accelerator using 45–90 g projectiles at velocities up to 2500 m/s.This article was processed using Springer-Verlag T_EX Shock Waves macro package 1990.

Numerical and experimental study of electromagnetically driven vortical flows

The paper reports on numerical and experimental investigations of electromagnetically driven vortical flows of an electrically conductive fluid in a generic setup. Two different configurations of permanent magnets are considered: a 3-magnet configuration in which the resulting Lorentz force is focused in the wall-boundary layers, and a 2-magnet configuration which creates a centrally located intensive swirling motion. For both configurations the intensity of the Lorentz force could be varied by variation of the electrode DC current between 0.5 and 10 A.A comparative assessment of measured (PIV) and numerically calculated (LES with electromagnetically extended subgrid closure) velocity fields showed good agreement for both configurations. It is demonstrated that the newly designed setup can be used for fundamental studies of the interactions between fluid flow, turbulence and electromagnetic fields and provide detailed insights into the underlying physics of these interactions. This in turn can be used to optimise magnetic control of flow, turbulence and heat transfer in various configurations of practical relevance.

Influence of coolant injector configuration on film cooling effectiveness for gaseous and liquid film coolants

An experimental investigation is conducted to bring out the effects of coolant injector configuration on film cooling effectiveness, film cooled length and film uniformity associated with gaseous and liquid coolants. A series of measurements are performed using hot air as the core gas and gaseous nitrogen and water as the film coolants in a cylindrical test section simulating a thrust chamber. Straight and compound angle injection at two different configurations of 30°–10° and 45°–10° are investigated for the gaseous coolant. Tangential injection at 30° and compound angle injection at 30°–10° are examined for the liquid coolant. The analysis is based on measurements of the film-cooling effectiveness and film uniformity downstream of the injection location at different blowing ratios. Measured results showed that compound angle configuration leads to lower far-field effectiveness and shorter film length compared to tangential injection in the case of liquid film cooling. For similar injector configurations, effectiveness along the stream wise direction showed flat characteristics initially for the liquid coolant, while it was continuously dropping for the gaseous coolant. For liquid coolant, deviations in temperature around the circumference are very low near the injection point, but increases to higher values for regions away from the coolant injection locations. The study brings out the existance of an optimum gaseous film coolant injector configuration for which the effectiveness is maximum.     

Drag and lift reduction of a 3D bluff body using flaps

We present an experimental study on flow control over a classic 3D bluff-body used in automotive aerodynamics (Ahmed 1983). Flow control is achieved through moving flaps fixed on every edge around the two rear flat surfaces of the model. Different pairs of flaps, with variable angle compared to the walls, are tested. Parametric studies show that the most efficient configuration for the flaps is along the side edges of the rear slant, i.e. in the region where longitudinal vortices are created, and also at the junction between the roof and the rear slant, where the flow separates. We also explore the combinations of different flap configurations. We find interesting results showing cumulative effects between some configurations leading to −25% drag reduction and −105% lift reduction. Finally, particle image velocimetry measurements show that one of the key effects is the control of the longitudinal vortices created at the side edges of the rear slant.     

Stress distribution in the vicinity of slender notches having arbitrary shapes

It was observed, by a photoelastic investigation of the stress distribution around slender notches having arbitrary configurations, that the symmetricantisymmetric and asymmetric nature of the configuration rather than the overall geometry controls the stress distribution around the notch tip. Since the peak stresses are found to be on the conservative side for symmetric configurations, it is suggested that the available theoretical expressions for the stress-intensity factor of an equivalent circular-arc crack be utilized for further work on crack-propagation studies.     

不同当量比下喷管对旋转爆震特性的影响研究

为研究不同当量比下喷管构型对旋转爆震特性的影响,以煤油预燃裂解气为燃料,氧气体积分数为30%的富氧空气为氧化剂,开展了无喷管、收敛喷管、扩张喷管和收敛扩张喷管等工况下旋转爆震特性实验研究。实验发现,当量比为0.73～1.30时旋转爆震可稳定工作。随着当量比和喷管构型的变化,爆震波出现了单波、不稳定的对撞双波和稳定的对撞双波等3种传播模态。喷管构型对模态转换和旋转爆震波速有重要影响,收敛和收敛扩张喷管会促使新波头的产生,导致爆震波主要以双波对撞模态传播;而扩张喷管工况下,爆震波主要以单波模态传播。收敛喷管和收敛扩张喷管会使得波速最大值偏离化学恰当比,收敛扩张喷管可以提升爆震波速。
