煤油燃料超燃冲压发动机燃烧特性实验研究

为研究空气节流时序对超燃冲压发动机点火和火焰稳定的影响,本文通过实验方法研究了13个状态的煤油燃料超燃冲压发动机的燃烧特性,煤油燃烧通过先锋氢气和节流空气增强稳定性。通过两个固定位置的压力传感器来监测火焰稳定状态,采用纹影和OH-PLIF相结合的测量手段,获得了流场结构和火焰发展信息。发动机入口来流条件为Ma = 2.0,总温950 K,总压0.82 MPa。在空气节流的作用下,煤油被先锋火焰引燃;在先锋氢撤除后,煤油仍然可以稳定燃烧。在扩张段中,空气节流和燃烧共同作用产生的激波串移动速度约为52 m/s,但在凹槽内其速度仅为3.7 m/s。通过监测点压力变化情况可以区分所研究状态的火焰稳定与否,通过对13个研究状态的考察,获得了火焰稳定临界曲线。当所研究状态点在临界曲线右上方区域时,火焰状态稳定;当所研究状态点在临界曲线左下方区域时,火焰将被吹熄;当所研究状态点在临界曲线上时,火焰不稳定,在空气节流撤除之前将被吹熄。     

Influence of leading edge with real manufacturing error on aerodynamic performance of high subsonic compressor cascades

To investigate the influence of real leading-edge manufacturing error on aerodynamic performance of high subsonic compressor blades, a family of leading-edge manufacturing error data were obtained from measured compressor cascades. Considering the limited samples, the leading-edge angle and leading-edge radius distribution forms were evaluated by Shapiro-Wilk test and quantile–quantile plot. Their statistical characteristics provided can be introduced to later related researches. The parameterization design method B-spline and Bezier are adopted to create geometry models with manufacturing error based on leading-edge angle and leading-edge radius. The influence of real manufacturing error is quantified and analyzed by self-developed non-intrusive polynomial chaos and Sobol’ indices. The mechanism of leading-edge manufacturing error on aerodynamic performance is discussed. The results show that the total pressure loss coefficient is sensitive to the leading-edge manufacturing error compared with the static pressure ratio, especially at high incidence. Specifically, manufacturing error of the leading edge will influence the local flow acceleration and subsequently cause fluctuation of the downstream flow. The aerodynamic performance is sensitive to the manufacturing error of leading-edge radius at the design and negative incidences, while it is sensitive to the manufacturing error of leading-edge angle under the operation conditions with high incidences.     

Experimental study of a flush wall scramjet combustor equipped with strut/wall fuel injection

In this study a flush wall scramjet combustor is tested in a supersonic incoming air flow with the Mach number of 3 which is generated by an air vitiation heater producing the stagnation temperature of 1505 K. Using liquid kerosene as the fuel, the flame is stabilized by means of a centrally mounted O₂ pilot strut after being ignited by a plasma torch. During experimental measurements, the fuel is injected with a constant equivalence ratio of 0.8 according to specified strut/wall injection ratios, i.e., a portion of the fuel amount is injected from the strut while the rest is injected from the wall. The strut and wall injectors are arranged at the same axial position. The combustion performance and wall temperature gradients are evaluated with various fuel feeding ratios between the wall and the strut. Experimental results show, when the equivalence ratio is constant and the axial injection position is fixed, the combustion characteristics vary significantly with the strut/wall fuel feeding ratio, especially when this ratio is close to its lowest and highest limits. Among the four fuel feeding ratios examined, the strut only injection mode and the average distributed strut/wall injection mode show the best combustion performance. However, the strut/wall injection mode produces a smaller wall temperature gradient compared to the strut only injection mode, which is due to the significant film cooling effect caused by the wall injected liquid kerosene.     

乙烯和汽油多循环脉冲爆震发动机起爆特性比较

为了研究脉冲爆震发动机(PDE)结构对其工作性能的影响,在内径为40mm、长为1050mm的气动阀式脉冲爆震发动机样机上,进行了气态乙烯/空气和液态汽油/空气的多循环起爆特性试验研究.研究结果表明:在25,30Hz和40Hz下都能在乙烯/空气中成功触发爆震波,40Hz下产生C-J(Chapman-Jouguet)爆震波,传播速度为1724m/s(低于C-J爆震波速度理论值1832.45m/s的5.6%),峰值压力为3.01MPa(高于C-J爆震波压力理论值2.79MPa的7.88%).在相同结构下,汽油/空气未能完成由缓燃向爆震转变的过程.通过对比两种燃料下的试验结果发现:相对于气态燃料,液态燃料受其蒸发过程的影响,在爆震管内的火焰加速缓慢,需要更多的强化燃烧装置来加速火焰,带来的总压损失也更大.因此,对于液态燃料改善雾化和蒸发,提高可爆混气的质量是其实现低阻起爆的关键.      

Effects of wing flexibility on aerodynamic performance of an aircraft model

The low-speed wind tunnel experiment is carried out on a simplified aircraft model to explore the influence of wing flexibility on the aircraft aerodynamic performance. The investigation involves the measurements of force, membrane deformation and velocity field at Reynolds number of 5.4 × 10⁴–1.1 × 10⁵. In the lift curves, two peaks are observed. The first peak, corresponding to the stall, is sensitive to the wing flexibility much more than the second peak, which nearly keeps constant. For the optimal case, in comparison with the rigid wing model, the delayed stall of nearly 5° is achieved, and the relative lift increment is about 90%. It is revealed that the lift enhanced region corresponds to the larger deformation and stronger vibration, which leads to stronger flow mixing near the flexible wing surface. Thereby, the leading-edge separation is suppressed, and the aerodynamic performance is improved significantly. Furthermore, the effects of sweep angle and Reynolds number on the aerodynamic characteristics of flexible wing are also presented.     

Aerodynamic design of tractor propeller for high-performance distributed electric propulsion aircraft

Aiming to maximize the aerodynamic performance of the Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) aircraft, a hybrid design framework which focuses on the aerodynamic performance of the propeller/wing integration has been developed and validated numerically. Variable-fidelity modelling for propeller aerodynamics has been used to achieve computational efficiency with reasonable accuracy. By optimizing the aerodynamic loading distributions on the tractor propeller disk, the induced slipstream is redistributed into a form that is beneficial for the wing downstream, based on which the propeller blade geometry is generated through a rapid inversed design procedure. As compared with the Minimum Induced Loss (MIL) propeller at a specified thrust level, significant improvements of both the lift-to-drag ratio of the wing and the propeller/wing integrated aerodynamic efficiency is achieved, which shows great promise to deliver aerodynamic benefits for the wing within the propeller slipstream without any additional devices.
