Progress of continuously rotating detonation engines

Continuously rotating detonation engine (CRDE) is a focus for concern in the field of aerospace propulsion. It has several advantages, including one-initiation, high thermal efficiency and simple structure. Due to these characteristics, it is expected to bring revolutionary advance-ments to aviation and aerospace propulsion systems and now has drawn much attention throughout the world. In this paper, an overview of the development of CRDE is given from several aspects:basic concepts, applications, experimental studies, numerical simulations, and so on. Representative results and outstanding contributions are summarized and the unresolved issues for further engi-neering applications of CRDE are provided.     

POD和DMD方法分析不同间隙压气机旋转不稳定性特性

对一台单级低速轴流压气机旋转不稳定性(RI)进行分析。在前期的旋转不稳定性特性、流场成因和不同间隙影响的研究基础上,进一步基于全通道数值模拟,采用两种流场降阶方法分析不同叶顶间隙条件下旋转不稳定性各阶模态对应的流场成分、模态能量占比和稳定性等特性。计算结果表明,前几阶模态能量占比大,对流场起主要贡献,并且稳定性相对较强。随着间隙的减小,旋转不稳定性的能量占比和稳定性下降,各阶的叶片转动成为流场的主要成分。      

The evolution of mirror type magnetic fluctuations in the magnetosheath based on multipoint observations

Two orbits were selected in January–February 2006 when the separation between the Cluster spacecraft was large and mirror type magnetic field fluctuations were observed by all spacecraft in different regions of the terrestrial magnetosheath. Minimum variance analysis was applied to find the mirror type fluctuations, and the amplitude of the fluctuations was determined individually. Mirror mode structures are moving along the streamlines frozen in the plasma. A model was developed for the calculation of plasma flowtime from the bow shock to the observation point. The growth rate of the field strength perturbations was estimated by comparing the amplitudes of fluctuations observed simultaneously at distant locations (∼10,000 km) based on the assumption that δB ∼ exp(γt). The obtained growth rate values were about an order of magnitude smaller than those provided by linear models and they decreased in the inner regions of the magnetosheath, indicating some saturation in the growth of the waves when proceeding towards the magnetopause. The results of these two case studies suggest that mirror type fluctuations originate from the compression region downstream of the quasi-perpendicular bow shock, and the growth of the fluctuations cannot be described by linear approximations.     

喷嘴位置对脉冲爆轰发动机性能影响的试验研究

为了研究喷嘴位置对脉冲爆轰发动机性能的影响,设计加工了直径为80mm的汽油/空气两相脉冲爆轰发动机（PDE）,在PDE文氏管内不同位置安装喷嘴,进行了冷态雾化和热态燃烧转爆轰试验,分析了马尔文激光粒度仪测得的液滴尺寸分布和动态压力传感器测得的信号。试验结果表明：喷嘴的安装位置对脉冲爆轰发动机的性能具有显著影响;喷嘴安装在文氏管喉部时爆轰管内雾化混合效果最好,爆轰波峰值压力最大为3．5 MPa,工作频率最高为30Hz;喷嘴安装在文氏管入口时爆轰管内雾化混合效果最差,爆轰波峰值压力最小为0．9MPa,工作频率最低为15 Hz;在试验范围内,改善雾化混合效果有利于提高脉冲爆轰发动机的工作频率。研究结果对脉冲爆轰发动机的设计具有参考价值。     

激波聚焦诱导气液两相爆震燃烧的数值模拟

对以激波聚焦和增加障碍物方式诱导煤油-空气气液两相爆震燃烧的过程进行了数值模拟.采用欧拉-拉格朗日方法建立了脉冲爆震发动机(PDE)中气液两相流的喷射、雾化、掺混过程.研究发现环形爆震波在爆震管凹腔内经过反射、汇聚后能够引燃可燃混合物.而在障碍物处,激波的反射和再反射聚焦能够形成高温高压点(2700K,25MPa),产生局部爆炸,有助于形成稳定的脉冲爆震燃烧(波面速度为1900m/s,温度为2 950K),有效地缩短由缓燃向爆震转变(DDT)距离至0.45m.     

相对论性离子束（环束）流引起的电磁不稳定性

在相对论性框架下，研究了冷离子流产生的右旋共振模，非共振模电磁不稳定性的特征结果表明，非共振模不稳定性增长率受离子流初始参数影响较大，而右旋共振模的增长率则受离子流初始参数影响较小。此结果可应用于太阳高能离子流通过低日冕区和地球磁层辐射带俘获的高能质子情形。     

Cluster observations showing the indication of the formation of a modified-two-stream instability in the geomagnetic tail

This study presents several observations of the Cluster spacecraft on September 24, 2003 around 15:10 UT, which show necessary prerequisites and consequences for the formation of the so-called modified-two-stream instability (MTSI). Theoretical studies suggest that the plasma is MTSI unstable if (1) a relative drift of electrons and ions is present, which exceeds the Alfvèn speed, and (2) this relative drift or current is in the cross-field direction. As consequences of the formation of a MTSI one expects to observe (1) a field-aligned electron beam, (2) heating of the plasma, and (3) an enhancement in the B-wave spectrum at frequencies in the range of the lower-hybrid-frequency (LHF). In this study we use prime parameter data of the CIS and PEACE instruments onboard the Cluster spacecraft to verify the drift velocities of ions and electrons, FGM data to calculate the expected LHF and Alfvèn velocity, and the direction of the current. The B-wave spectrum is recorded by the STAFF instrument of Cluster. Finally, a field aligned beam of electrons is observed by 3D measurements of the IES instrument of the RAPID unit. Observations are verified using a theoretical model showing the build-up of a MTSI under the given circumstances.     

高焓激波风洞喷管流场非平衡特性研究

高焓激波风洞是开展高超声速流动研究的重要地面模拟设备,但其产生的高焓气流在喷管中的膨胀过程是一种典型的热化学非平衡流动,试验段特征参数通过直接实验测量难以完全确定。本文通过求解耦合双温度模型的轴对称Navier-Stokes方程,研究了高焓激波风洞中典型状态下气流的热化学非平衡流动特性,分析了焓值对非平衡特性的影响规律。结果表明,喷管出口自由流均匀区域达到出口截面直径的75%以上,能够为实验提供足够的空间;喷管出口自由流处于热化学非平衡状态,在喷管喉道后约1/5喷管长度处气流即已处于冻结流状态,组分浓度和振动温度随气流流动基本不变;焓值在8.4MJ/kg~19.5MJ/kg之间变化时,非平衡程度随着焓值的增加而增强,但是低焓值时非平衡程度的增强更加剧烈。

Shock Wave Interaction with the Magnetopause

The magnetopause is in continuous motion and shock waves and impulsive acceleration events can occur. As an example, we show that the interaction of an interplanetary shock with the bow shock can generate a shock wave that after passing through the magnetosheath can interact with the magnetopause. In fluid dynamics, when a shock wave encounters a fluid discontinuity, the interface may become unstable and form bubbles and spikes. We consider this Richtmyer-Meshkov instability in magnetohydrodynamics. At the dayside magnetopause, the instability tends to be stabilized by the magnetic field. However, the shock wave interaction can initiate magnetic field reconnection for the southward IMF, which may be important in strong interplanetary shock events.
