平板大攻角绕流升力和阻力系数的计算

二维平板或二维对称薄翼型大攻角绕流升力和阻力系数与攻角之间存在的函数关系一般用数据表格的形式给出。本文根据垂直平板绕流阻力实验数据和对称薄翼型全攻角绕流实验数据,分析得到了平板大攻角绕流总压力及其升力分量和阻力分量系数的近似计算公式。结果表明：平板总压力系数约等于攻角正弦值的2倍;总压力的阻力分量系数约等于攻角正弦值平方的2倍;升力分量系数约为攻角2倍的正弦值。计算结果与两组试验数据具有较好的一致性。     

低雷诺数下柔性翼型气动性能分析

基于流固耦合方法对吸力面5%至95%弦长处为三段柔性结构的NACA0012翼型绕流进行了数值模拟,研究了不同弹性模量下柔性翼型的气动性能和结构响应.结果表明:在大攻角下,翼面变形影响着翼型表面的非定常流场,起到延缓失速和提高升力的作用;失速后柔性翼的升力系数下降得较为缓慢,且柔性越大,升力系数下降得越平缓;适当减小弹性模量能够提高翼型的气动性能,然而弹性模量过小反而不利于翼型气动性能的提升,并且翼面会产生大幅度的振动.

翼型绕流的电磁力控制

将表面包覆电磁激活板的翼型,按一定的攻角,置于流动的弱电介质溶液中,电磁激活板可产生作用于流体的切向电磁力(Lorentz力),从而改变流体边界层的结构. 在转动水槽中,对翼型绕流及电磁力控制下的绕流形态进行了实验研究. 结果表明,未加电磁力时,前缘涡的脱落点是不确定的,与流场具体条件有关,而后缘涡仅在尖角处脱落. 前缘涡与后缘涡相互影响,并周期性的脱体,在尾部形成涡街. 施加电磁力后,当力的方向与流动方向相同时,可以在一定程度上抑制分离,消除涡街,其效果与减小攻角类似. 加反向电磁力时,则相当于加大攻角,在翼型体的背风面形成涡街.

Transonic limit cycle oscillation behavior of an aeroelastic airfoil with free-play

The limit cycle oscillation (LCO) behaviors of an aeroelastic airfoil with free-play for different Mach numbers are studied. Euler equations are adopted to obtain the unsteady aerodynamic forces. Aerodynamic and structural describing functions are employed to deal with aerodynamic and structural nonlinearities, respectively. Then the flutter speed and flutter frequency are obtained by V-g method. The LCO solutions for the aeroelastic airfoil obtained by using dynamically linear aerodynamics agree well with those obtained directly by using nonlinear aerodynamics. Subsequently, the dynamically linear aerodynamics is assumed, and results show that the LCOs behave variously in different Mach number ranges. A subcritical bifurcation, consisting of both stable and unstable branches, is firstly observed in subsonic and high subsonic regime. Then in a narrow Mach number range, the unstable LCOs with small amplitudes turn to be stable ones dominated by the single degree of freedom flutter. Meanwhile, these LCOs can persist down to very low flutter speeds. When the Mach number is increased further, the stable branch turns back to be unstable. To address the reason of the stability variation for different Mach numbers at small amplitude LCOs, we find that the Mach number freeze phenomenon provides a physics-based explanation and the phase reversal of the aerodynamic forces will trigger the single degree of freedom flutter in the narrow Mach number range between the low and high Mach numbers of the chimney region. The high Mach number can be predicted by the freeze Mach number, and the low one can be estimated by the Mach number at which the aerodynamic center of the airfoil lies near its elastic axis. Influence of angle of attack and viscous effects on the LCO behavior is also discussed.     

Equivalent damping of aeroelastic system of an airfoil with cubic stiffness

This paper presents a mathematical study on the subsonic aerodynamics acting on an airfoil with a cubic stiffness. One portion of aerodynamics is assumed as and replaced by an equivalent damping. Using the harmonic balance method, an equivalent system is deduced and studied by a numerical integration method. Numerical examples show the validity and feasibility of the proposed mathematical treatment of the aerodynamics. It reveals that the unsteady aerodynamics acting on the airfoil can not only affect the pitch stiffness but also result in additional damping.     

“FLUID ROLLER BEARING” EFFECT AND FLOW CONTROL

Owing to the rapid development of smart materials, flow control by travelling waves (TW) produced on flexible skin is becoming a very promising new area of research. One of the most revolutionary concepts of using TW technique is to trap a row of controllable vortices over the body surface, which plays a role of “fluid roller bearing” (FRB) between the external flow and the solid wall. The FRB can replace the conventional boundary layer and hence remove the latter‘‘s various unfavorable effects. This paper reports our preliminary numerical study of the FRB effect on flow over several typical walls, especially an airfoil with FRB at the stall angle of attack, which has never been considered before. Significant improvement of aerodynamic performance on the FRB-airfoil is observed, which strongly suggests that the FRB effect may open a brand new avenue to the 21th-Century aerodynamics.

Effect of one-sided unsteady energy supply on aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils in a transonic flow

The possibility of controlling the aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils in transonic flight regimes by means of one-sided pulsed-periodic energy supply is studied. Based on the numerical solution of two-dimensional unsteady gas-dynamic equations, the change in the flow structure in the vicinity of a symmetric airfoil at different angles of attack and the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil as functions of the amount of energy supplied asymmetrically (with respect to the airfoil) are determined. The results obtained are compared with the data calculated for the flow past the airfoil at different angles of attack without energy supply. It is found that a given lift force can be obtained with the use of energy supply at a much better lift-to-drag ratio of the airfoil, as compared to the case of the flow past the airfoil at an angle of attack. The moment characteristics of the airfoil are found. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 49, No. 6, pp. 82–87, November–December, 2008.     

Effect of asymmetric pulsed periodic energy supply on aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils

The possibility of controlling the aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils in transonic flight regimes by means of local pulsed periodic energy supply is considered. The numerical solution of two-dimensional unsteady equations of gas dynamics allowed determining the changes in the flow structure near a symmetric airfoil and its aerodynamic characteristics depending on the magnitude of energy in the case of its asymmetric (with respect to the airfoil) supply. The results obtained are compared with the calculated data for the flow around the airfoil at different angles of attack without energy supply. With the use of energy supply, a prescribed lift force can be obtained with a substantially lower wave drag of the airfoil, as compared with the flow around the airfoil at an angle of attack. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 48, No. 6, pp. 70–76, November–December, 2007.     

Numerical investigation of transonic flow over deformable airfoil with plunging motion

In this article, the transonic inviscid flow over a deformable airfoil with plunging motion is studied numerically. A finite volume method based on the Roe scheme developed in a generalized coordinate is used along with an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method and a dynamic mesh algorithm to track the instantaneous position of the airfoil.The effects of different governing parameters such as the phase angle, the deformation amplitude, the initial angle of attack, the flapping frequency, and the Mach number on the unsteady flow field and aerodynamic coefficients are investigated in detail. The results show that maneuverability of the airfoil under various flow conditions is improved by the deformation. In addition, as the oscillation frequency of the airfoil increases, its aerodynamic performance is significantly improved.
