两种湍流模型及其可压缩修正在高超压缩拐角中的评估(英文)

采用在高阶精度差分格式对SA湍流模型和SST湍流模型及相应的可压缩修正模型在高超拐角流中进行了评估。可压缩修正方式考虑了密度梯度、压力膨胀和湍流马赫数等方法。为了减小数值误差与模型误差之间的混淆,控制方程的对流项采用了5阶精度的加权紧致非线性格式(WCNS-E-5),粘性项采用了一种半结点/结点交错的4阶中心格式。通过对马赫数为9.22的15度拐角和34度拐角湍流的模拟,考察了原始湍流模型及其修正模型的效果。计算表明:原始SST模型对高超拐角湍流的预测比原始SA模型准确,这种准确主要体现在对分离区预测、再附点附近压力和热流峰值预测上。通过混合采用Catris和Shur等的方法对 SA模型进行可压缩修正可以大大改进模拟效果。在SST模型的可压缩修正方法中,Catris的修正方法最好;考虑压力膨胀修正后得到的分离区远远偏大,比本原始SST模型更差;考虑湍流马赫数的修正方法得到的分离区偏小。本文还给了部分低阶格式的计算结果,高阶格式与低阶格式相比,对分离区大小、再附点附近的压力和热流峰值等的预测准度有所改进。

Assessment of Two Turbulence Models and Some Compressibility Corrections for Hypersonic Compression Corners by High-order Difference Schemes

The Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) turbulence model, the shear-stress transport (SST) turbulence model and their compressibility corrections are revaluated for hypersonic compression corner flows by using high-order difference schemes. The compressibility effect of density gradient, pressure dilatation and turbulent Mach number is accounted. In order to reduce confusions between model uncertainties and discretization errors, the formally fifth-order explicit weighted compact nonlinear scheme (WCNS-E-5) is adopted for convection terms, and a fourth-order staggered central difference scheme is applied for viscous terms. The 15° and 34° compression corners at Mach number 9.22 are investigated. Numerical results show that the original SST model is superior to the original S-A model in the resolution of separated regions and predictions of wall pressures and wall heat-flux rates. The capability of the S-A model can be largely improved by blending Catris’ and Shur’s compressibility corrections. Among the three corrections of the SST model listed in the present paper, Catris’ modification brings the best results. However, the dissipation and pressure dilatation corrections result in much larger separated regions than that of the experiment, and are much worse than the original SST model as well as the other two corrections. The correction of turbulent Mach number makes the separated region slightly smaller than that of the original SST model. Some results of low-order schemes are also presented. When compared to the results of the high-order schemes, the separated regions are smaller, and the peak wall pressures and peak heat-flux rates are lower in the region of the reattachment points.
