三维非线性撕裂模耦合和快速磁场重联

基于三维不可压缩电阻性ＭＨＤ方程，在长柱形位型下，数值研究了电阻撕裂模不稳定性所引起的磁场重联过程。研究结果表明，撕裂模的非线性相互作用和耦合，将产生许多模式的强裂解稳和导致快速的磁场重联。这一过程的进一步发展，导致具有螺旋形结构，不同模式的磁岛磁力线重叠，从而引起较大区域内的磁场各态经历和磁力线随机走向，形成撕裂模端动。     

U型脉冲爆震燃烧室的点火起爆工作特性试验研究

为了缩短脉冲爆震燃烧室轴向长度,开展了气液两相U型脉冲爆震燃烧室（U-PDC）点火起爆特性试验研究。试验时采用火花塞点火和热射流点火,且点火能量可调。研究结果表明,两种点火方式均可实现U-PDC工作频率10~30Hz稳定工作,且DDT时间随工作频率提高而缩短,在5~11ms之间。此外,实现U-PDC稳定工作时,热射流所需的点火能量为0.05J较火花塞点火能量1J更低,并且热射流点火DDT距离更短,约718mm,起爆位置距来流入口的轴向距离约280mm,缩短了起爆所需的轴向长度,有利于工程应用。但是,进一步提高热射流点火能量,其DDT距离无明显变化。     

气相爆轰波马赫反射非自相似性特征的实验

为了研究在CJ(Chapman-Jouguet)状态下气相爆轰波马赫反射的非自相似性特征,搭建了由驱动段、传播段以及观测段组成的矩形管道;利用纹影和烟膜实验方法分别对3种预混气发生马赫反射现象进行了实验研究.实验结果表明:对稳态或非稳态气体,测量了马赫反射三波点位置高度,验证了马赫反射三波点轨迹线为波动的曲线,即自相似性对爆轰波马赫反射失效;非自相似性的重要特征是三波点轨迹线在楔角初始位置时基本遵循无反应冲击波理论计算结果,随后逐渐偏离并向有反应冲击波转变,之后接近平行于反应冲击波理论计算并稳定地处于两个理论值之间.最后给出在初始压力为10kPa和楔角为30°的条件下,对于所研究的3种气体,其马赫反射三波点发生转变的位置高度分别约为0.8,1.05cm以及0.5cm,可见相同初始条件下非稳态气体的马赫反射发生转变比稳态气体提前.      

Spectral analysis and self-adjusting mechanism for oscillation phenomenon in hydrogen-oxygen continuously rotating detonation engine

The continuously rotating detonation engine(CRDE)is a new concept of engines for aircraft and spacecraft.Quasi-stable continuously rotating detonation(CRD)can be observed in an annular combustion chamber,but the sustaining,stabilizing and adjusting mechanisms are not yet clear.To learn more deeply into the CRDE,experimental studies have been carried out to investigate hydrogen-oxygen CRDE.Pressure histories are obtained during each shot,which show that stable CRD waves are generated in the combustor,when feeding pressures are higher than 0.5 MPa for fuel and oxidizer,respectively.Each shot can keep running as long as fresh gas feeding maintains.Close-up of the pressure history shows the repeatability of pressure peaks and indicates the detonation velocity in hydrogen–oxygen CRD,which proves the success of forming a stable CRD in the annular chamber.Spectrum of the pressure history matches the close-up analysis and confirms the CRD.It also shows multi-wave phenomenon and affirms the fact that in this case a single detonation wave is rotating in the annulus.Moreover,oscillation phenomenon is found in pressure peaks and a self-adjusting mechanism is proposed to explain the phenomenon.     

Hemisphere-coupled modeling of nighttime medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances

Nighttime medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs), which have tilted frontal structures in the midlatitude ionosphere, are investigated by the midlatitude ionosphere electrodynamics coupling (MIECO) model in this study. It has been proposed that the electrodynamic coupling between the E and F regions plays an important role in generating MSTIDs within a few hours. An intriguing aspect of MSTIDs is that they were simultaneously observed at magnetic conjugate locations in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. In order to study the hemisphere-coupled electrodynamics, the MIECO model has been upgraded to consist of two simulation domains for both hemispheres in which the electrostatic potential is solved by considering electrodynamics in both hemispheres. The simultaneous occurrence of MSTIDs at the magnetic conjugate stations has clearly been reproduced when the F-region neutral wind satisfies the unstable condition in both hemispheres and a sporadic-E layer is given only at the Northern (summer) Hemisphere. Even if the unstable condition is satisfied in the summer hemisphere, an unfavorable F-region neutral wind in the winter hemisphere largely suppresses the growth of MSTIDs in both hemispheres.     

斜爆轰波的波角和法向速度-曲率关系初探

为研究斜劈诱导斜爆轰波的波阵面弯曲效应，以期为斜爆轰的不稳定性及其演化规律提供新的见解，基于加权本质无振荡（WENO）格式空间离散和附加Runge-Kutta方法时间离散的求解器，针对不同的化学反应参数（释热量、放热速率和化学反应区参考长度）条件，开展斜爆轰波的数值计算研究。结果表明斜爆轰波沿波阵面的波角变化可分为3个区域：区域I，波角平滑减小；区域II，波角跃升后衰减；区域III，波角有规律振荡。波阵面法向速度-曲率关系在区域I呈现准垂直直线变化趋势，并伴随着爆轰波强度的不断衰减；在区域III则呈现出"D"形曲线，即由极曲线段、光滑水平变化段和拟线性变化段组成，为类胞格结构的周期性演变；区域II可认为是以上两个区域特征的耦合。不同的化学反应参数对斜爆轰波波阵面的弯曲效应影响存在较大差别。     

小积液情况下卧式转子的稳定性实验研究

盘腔积液现象在舰用燃气轮机工作过程中时有发生，汽化的滑油和水蒸气凝结形成积液。转子带动腔内的积液旋转，引发振动失稳，严重时会对发动机结构造成致命性破坏。为此，本文开展燃气轮机压气机盘腔积液的模拟实验研究，以双盘双支承的卧式柔性转子系统作为研究对象，重点关注小积液量的特点，对积液转子的动力学稳定性进行了研究。观测到转子的失稳现象，开展了不同积液体积、不同积液类型（水、植物油和滑油）等因素的影响规律研究，揭示了小积液的卧式转子动力学特征。研究结果表明：①对于积液失稳振动，存在失稳边界积液量，当积液量大于该边界值时，失稳将会发生。②失稳边界转速及恢复转速均高于临界转速。当转速高于失稳边界转速时，失稳将会发生。转速进一步增加，高于恢复转速时，失稳现象可能消失。③失稳时的振动特征为：出现幅值突增，次谐波成分也随之增加；基频和次谐波发生调制，表现出拍振特征。④随着积液体积的增加，失稳边界转速先减小后增加。⑤随着积液粘度系数增大，失稳边界转速和边界积液量均增大。     

Secondary instability of separated shear layers

The process through which a laminar flow undergoes transition to turbulence is of great fundamental and practical interest. Such a process is hugely complex as there are many diverse routes for a laminar flow to become turbulent flow. The transition process is usually initiated by flow instabilities—a primary instability stage followed by a secondary instability stage. This forms a rational framework for the early stage of a transition process and it is crucially important to understand the physics of instabilities leading to turbulence. This article reviews the results of studies on secondary instability of separated shear layers in separation bubbles and summaries the current status of our understanding in this area.     

Kink-like mode of a double gradient instability in a compressible plasma current sheet

A linear MHD instability of the electric current sheet, characterized by a small normal magnetic field component, varying along the sheet, is investigated. The tangential magnetic field component is modeled by a hyperbolic function, describing Harris-like variations of the field across the sheet. For this problem, which is formulated in a 3D domain, the conventional compressible ideal MHD equations are applied. By assuming Fourier harmonics along the electric current, the linearized 3D equations are reduced to 2D ones. A finite difference numerical scheme is applied to examine the time evolution of small initial perturbations of the plasma parameters. This work is an extended numerical study of the so called “double gradient instability”, – a possible candidate for the explanation of flapping oscillations in the magnetotail current sheet, which has been analyzed previously in the framework of a simplified analytical approach for an incompressible plasma. The dispersion curve is obtained for the kink-like mode of the instability. It is shown that this curve demonstrates a quantitative agreement with the previous analytical result. The development of the instability is investigated also for various enhanced values of the normal magnetic field component. It is found that the characteristic values of the growth rate of the instability shows a linear dependence on the square root of the parameter, which scales uniformly the normal component of the magnetic field in the current sheet.     

强迫扰动下的射流撞击雾化特性

为全面把握撞击式喷嘴的工作特性，进一步认识雾化在燃烧不稳定中所起的作用，采用试验结合数值模拟的方法开展了强迫扰动条件下撞击式喷嘴的非稳态雾化特性研究。试验方面，采用水力扰动装置产生喷前压力扰动，由脉动压力传感器记录喷前的脉动压力，由高速摄影对动态的喷雾场进行背光拍摄。数值模拟则是基于开源程序Gerris开展，通过给定周期性变化的速度入口来模拟前端压力扰动下的撞击雾化过程。首先验证了建立的数值模拟方案处理非稳态雾化的有效性，其次将自然雾化与强迫扰动雾化进行对比，分析了强迫扰动条件下的撞击雾化特性，最后研究了扰动频率与扰动幅值对于撞击雾化的影响。结果表明：强迫扰动下的射流撞击喷雾场出现了弓形液滴群局部聚集的现象，并且在时间上表现出周期性特征，雾化频率与强迫扰动的频率一致。在研究的频率范围（1 257~3 563 Hz）内，撞击式喷嘴的雾化对扰动都有响应。扰动频率主要影响相邻弓形液滴群之间的间距以及雾场与扰动压力之间的相位关系，扰动幅值则主要影响雾化Klystron效应的强度。随着扰动幅值的增大，液膜的破碎长度减小，撞击点下游的流量特性由线性向非线性转变，由正弦波形转变为陡峭前缘波形。
