Dynamics of oblique detonations in ram accelerators

Time-accurate numerical simulations are used to study the dynamic development of oblique detonations on accelerating projectiles in ram accelerators. These simulations show that the oblique detonation can be stabilized on the projectile. The high pressure generated behind the detonation can result in accelerations up to 10⁶G and propel the projectile to velocities higher than 4.0 km/s. The detonation structure on the projectile is sensitive to the projectile geometry. A small change in the projectile shape is sufficient to alter the overall detonation structure and significantly affect the pressure distribution on the projectile. In order to maximize the thrust, an appropriate projectile shape has to be chosen to generate the detonation structure just behind the widest part of the projectile body. The projectile acceleration also has strong effects on the flow field and the detonation structure. During the acceleration, the location of the oblique detonation moves upstream from one reflected shock to another. However, one the detonation is stabilized behind the upstream shock, it remains at the new location until the transition to the next upstream shock occurs. In the simulations, the Non-Inertial-Source (NIS) technique was used to accurately represent of the projectile acceleration. Also, the Virtual-Cell-Embedding (VCE) method was employed to efficiently treat the complex projectile geometry on cartesian grids.

DNA molecular configurations in flows near adsorbing and nonadsorbing surfaces

We investigate experimentally -phage and T2-coliphage DNA molecules near both non-adsorbing glass and adsorbing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)-coated glass surfaces in a simple steady shearing flow generated by a torsional flow cell. The DNA molecular deformations near the surface are found to be considerably weaker than in bulk flow at the same shear rate. This affects the DNA molecules deposition and stretching on the adsorbing surface. Surprisingly, for a simple shearing flow in the torsional shearing device, the observed stretch, for molecules both near (<10 µm) the surface and adsorbed to it, is much less than predicted by simulations.     

The effects of shear on delamination in layered materials

The effect of transverse shear on delamination in layered, isotropic, linear-elastic materials has been determined. In contrast to the effects of an axial load or a bending moment on the energy-release rate for delamination, the effects of shear depend on the details of the deformation in the crack-tip region. It therefore does not appear to be possible to deduce rigorous expressions for the shear component of the energy-release rate based on steady-state energy arguments or on any type of modified beam theory. The expressions for the shear component of the energy-release rate presented in this work have been obtained using finite-element approaches. By combining these results with earlier expressions for the bending-moment and axial-force components of the energy-release rates, the framework for analyzing delamination in this type of geometry has been extended to the completely general case of any arbitrary loading. The relationship between the effects of shear and other fracture phenomena such as crack-tip rotations, elastic foundations and cohesive zones are discussed in the final sections of this paper.     

Numerical Investigation of a Bluff-Body Stabilised Nonpremixed Flame with Differential Reynolds-Stress Models

A numerical investigation of a bluff-body stabilised nonpremixedflame, and the corresponding nonreacting flow, has been performed withdifferential Reynolds-stress models (DRSMs). The equilibrium chemistry model is employed and an assumed-shape beta function PDFapproach is used to represent the interaction between turbulence andchemistry. The Reynolds flux of the mixture fraction is obtained from atransport equation, hence a full second moment closure is used. Toclarify the applicability of the existing DRSMs in this complex flame,several models, including LRR-IP model, JM model, SSG model as well as amodified LRR-IP model, have been applied and evaluated. The existingmodels, with default values of the coefficients, cannot provide overallsatisfactory predictions for this challenging test case. The standardLRR-IP model over predicts the centreline velocity decay rate, andtherefore does not perform satisfactory. The modified LRR-IP model, withmodel constant C _∈1 = 1.6 instead of the standard value1.44 (here named BM-M1), gives better results for the mean velocity.However in the nonreacting case this does not lead to improvement inpredicting rms fluctuating velocities especially downstream of therecirculation zone. Motivated by the need to improve the prediction, anew modification of the LRR-IP model is proposed (BM-M2), with modelconstant C ₂ = 0.7in the pressure strain correlation rather thanthe standard value 0.6. With the new modified model, a verysignificant improvement of the prediction of flow field is obtained inthe nonreacting case, whereas in the reacting case the prediction ofthe flow field is of the same overall quality as with BM-M1. This showsthat some DRSMs have different behaviour in the nonreacting case andthe reacting case. In the reacting case also the mean and variance ofmixture fraction are considered and it is found that the best resultsare obtained with the BM-M1 model, with SSG as second best. Combiningthe results for flow field and mixture fraction field it is concludedthat the BM-M1 model is recommended for further studies of thisbluff-body stabilised flame. Grid independence of the result isdemonstrated.
