Numerical investigation of aerodynamic flow actuation produced by surface plasma actuator on 2D oscillating airfoil

Numerical simulation of unsteady flow control over an oscillating NACA0012 airfoil is investigated. Flow actuation of a turbulent flow over the airfoil is provided by low current DC surface glow discharge plasma actuator which is analytically modeled as an ion pressure force produced in the cathode sheath region. The modeled plasma actuator has an induced pressure force of about 2 k Pa under a typical experiment condition and is placed on the airfoil surface at 0% chord length and/or at 10% chord length. The plasma actuator at deep-stall angles(from 5° to 25°) is able to slightly delay a dynamic stall and to weaken a pressure fluctuation in down-stroke motion. As a result, the wake region is reduced. The actuation effect varies with different plasma pulse frequencies, actuator locations and reduced frequencies. A lift coefficient can increase up to 70% by a selective operation of the plasma actuator with various plasma frequencies and locations as the angle of attack changes. Active flow control which is a key advantageous feature of the plasma actuator reveals that a dynamic stall phenomenon can be controlled by the surface plasma actuator with less power consumption if a careful control scheme of the plasma actuator is employed with the optimized plasma pulse frequency and actuator location corresponding to a dynamic change in reduced frequency.     

On the nature of coronal loops above the quiet sun network

The structure and dynamics of a box in a stellar corona can be modeled employing a 3D MHD model for different levels of magnetic activity. Depending on the magnetic flux through the surface the nature of the resulting coronal structures can be quite different. We investigate a model of an active region for two sunspots surrounded by magnetic field patches comparable in magnetic flux to the sunspots. The model results in emission from the model corona being concentrated in loop structures. In Gudiksen and Nordlund (2005) the loops seen in EUV and X-ray emission outline the magnetic field, following the general paradigm. However, in our model, where the magnetic field is far from a force-free state, the loops seen in X-ray emission do not follow the magnetic field lines. This result is of interest especially for loops as found in areas where the magnetic field emerging from active regions interacts with the surrounding network.     

Stabilization of an injected conducting layer for artificially enhancing drag on orbital debris

The evolution of a magnetized conducting medium suspended in magnetic and gravitational fields is examined. In this paper some effects of the influence of velocity fields on the linear stability properties of such layers are investigated. A fully compressible, three-dimensional analysis of the layer is described. The relevant equations are derived and then solved by the MagnetoHydroDynamic SPEctral Compressible Linear Stability (MHDSPECLS) algorithm, a Chebyshev collocation code. The code allows for the computation of magnetic and thermal effects. A complete stabilization of the system is found above a critical velocity of approximately 2500 m/s.

通过对用于脉冲爆震引燃的内楔表面激波聚焦冷态流场的数值模拟，分析了不同角度内楔表面在激波聚焦时流场结构的不同特点。数值计算的结果表明：对于大内楔角的情况，激波进入内楔角之后产生规则反射，温度的大幅度升高发生在激波于内楔顶点反射之后；对于小内楔角的情况，激波进入内楔角之后产生马赫反射，温度的升高在入射激波到达内楔顶点之前就已经发生，而在入射激波于内楔顶点反射之后得到进一步的提升。同时，还对不同角度内楔的反射激波后气流温度进行了比较。     

聚心火焰与诱导激波相互作用及爆燃转爆轰过程

基于带化学反应的二维轴对称Eu ler方程,利用带限制函数的波传播算法,在两端均敞开和一端封闭一端敞开的两种边界情况下,对圆柱型燃烧室中的氢气-空气预混气的聚心燃烧进行了数值模拟,探讨了聚心火焰引发爆轰过程中的波系结构以及火焰的变形。数值结果表明,在两端均敞开的情况下,燃烧诱导的激波在轴心、火焰和壁面之间来回反射,使火焰失稳,加速了火焰的燃烧,但没有转变成爆轰。而在一端封闭的情况下,封闭端反射产生的激波,不断穿越火焰,使火焰严重失稳,加剧了燃烧速度,最终导致爆轰的形成。稳定爆轰阵面的参数与CJ理论计算的结果进行了对比,两者符合的较好。同时,火焰在与激波的作用过程中,形状扭曲变形,对于两端敞开的情况呈对称的扁平头部蘑菇云,而对于一端封闭的情况,则呈封闭端小敞口端大的扁平头部蘑菇云。
