Numerical study of compression corner flowfield using Gao-Yong turbulence model

A numerical simulation of shock wave turbulent boundary layer interaction induced by a 24° compression corner based on Gao-Yong compressible turbulence model was presented.The convection terms and the diffusion terms were calculated using the second-order AUSM (advection upstream splitting method) scheme and the second-order central difference scheme,respectively.The Runge-Kutta time marching method was employed to solve the governing equations for steady state solutions.Significant flow separation-region which indicates highly non-isotropic turbulence structure has been found in the present work due to intensity interaction under the 24° compression corner.Comparisons between the calculated results and experimental data have been carried out,including surface pressure distribution,boundary-layer static pressure profiles and mean velocity profiles.The numerical results agree well with the experimental values,which indicate Gao-Yong compressible turbulence model is suitable for the prediction of shock wave turbulent boundary layer interaction in two-dimensional compression corner flows.      

Variation of dayside chorus waves associated with solar wind dynamic pressure based on MMS observations

The whistler-mode chorus waves are one of the most important plasma waves in the Earth’s magnetosphere. Generally, the amplitude of whistler-mode chorus waves prefers to strengthen when the energetic fluxes of anisotropic electrons increase outside the plasmapause. This characteristic is commonly associated with the geomagnetic storms or substorms. However, the relationship between the solar wind dynamic pressure (P_sw) and the long-time variation of chorus waves during the quiet period of the geomagnetic activity still needs more detailed investigations. In this paper, based on MMS observations, we present a chorus event just observed in the inner side of magnetopause without obvious geomagnetic storms or substroms. Interestingly, during this time interval, some P_sw fluctuations were recorded. Both the amplitudes and frequencies of chorus waves changed as a response to the variation in P_sw. It proved that the enhancement of P_sw increases the energetic electrons fluxes, which provides free energies for the chorus amplification. Furthermore, the wave growth rates calculated using linear theory increases and the central frequency of the chorus waves shifts to a higher frequency when the P_sw enhancement is greater, which are also consistent well with the observations. The results provide a direct evidence that the P_sw play an important role in the long-time variation of whistler-mode chorus waves inside the magnetopause.

流场可压缩性对涡相互作用影响的数值研究

涡相互作用作为冲压发动机喷注装置的典型抽象流动现象,研究其可压缩性影响对于认识包含化学反应的真实燃料喷射场具有一定基础理论价值。基于经过数值验证的可压缩Navier-Stokes算法与压力泊松方程初始条件设置方法研究流场可压缩性对涡相互作用演化过程的影响。结果表明,以较高涡旋马赫数表征的可压缩性在改变涡对形态的同时,具有延缓涡旋相互靠近,迟滞融合进程的作用。关于涡对系统开始融合的临界条件,可压缩相互作用开始的临界展弦比与无量纲时间相比于低速涡对明显提高。为在无量纲时间意义下统一不同马赫数涡对相互作用的进程,从涡心密度随时间变化规律出发在不可压涡对特征时间的基础上,初步构建了考虑可压缩性的时间尺度修正关系。     

小型无人倾转旋翼机气动与操纵特性试验研究

由于倾转旋翼机飞行模式多,各部件气动干扰复杂且操纵面冗余,特别是倾转过渡模式,短舱带动旋翼系统倾转,结构布局发生改变,从理论上确定气动与操纵特性难度大。为了研究倾转旋翼机的气动与操纵特性,对某小型无人倾转旋翼机展开全尺寸、全模式吹风试验,其中不带动力试验主要用于研究倾转旋翼机在不同迎角、短舱倾角、前飞速度等飞行状态下的气动特性;带动力试验主要用于研究倾转旋翼机不同飞行模式带机翼与不带机翼时,旋翼/机翼/襟副翼相互干扰作用,以及总距、副翼、升降舵的操纵功效。根据试验数据推导出小型无人倾转旋翼机全包线飞行的操纵特性方法,对进一步完善倾转旋翼机设计以及试飞试验的成功提供了参考。

直升机的气动弹性问题

直升机的气动弹性问题与固定翼飞机不同,不仅要考虑单片桨叶,更要将旋翼视为一个整体,考虑其动态入流、尾迹影响以及旋翼与机身之间的相互耦合等。就单片桨叶而言,在结构动力学上,需要考虑离心力场、几何非线性以及桨叶的非线性挥舞-摆振-扭转耦合;在气动力上,需要考虑动态入流以及桨尖处可能的失速效应,本质上属于非线性气动弹性力学范畴。由于旋翼气动力通常是以周期形式通过旋翼轴传给机身,并引起机身振动,而机身运动又通过改变桨叶根部形态反过来影响旋翼的气动弹性特性,这种旋翼/机身耦合问题,也是近年来直升机气动弹性问题研究中的重要方向和热点之一。此外,随着旋翼流场数值分析方法的日趋成熟,采用动态重叠网格或滑移网格方法来实现桨叶运动,并通过动网格技术来实现桨叶的弹性变形,从而实现弹性旋翼流场的数值模拟,目前正呈现出勃勃生机,成为直升机气动弹性研究的又一重要方向和热点。随着各种新构型直升机的相继出现,如倾转旋翼机、前行桨叶概念旋翼(ABC)直升机和复合式直升机等,也带来了新的气动弹性问题。不断发现问题、解决问题,推动本学科持续发展,永远是气动弹性工作者终身奋斗的目标。     

考虑流固耦合效应的航空发动机风扇叶片应力数值模拟与试验测量研究

航空发动机风扇转子在高压比、高转速、高负荷的级环境中工作时,存在叶片固体域与流体域之间强烈的耦合作用。针对风扇工作中的流固耦合问题,采用基于流固耦合的数值模拟方法对风扇叶片的结构特性进行模拟,研究考虑流固耦合效应前后叶片结构特性的变化。通过风扇转子加减速试验测量叶片表面测点应力变化,并将数值模拟与试验测量结果进行了对比分析。分析结果表明：考虑流固耦合效应后叶片表面的受力情况变化较大,导致叶片表面的应力与变形分布产生较大的变化;仅考虑离心力作用的计算方法得到的应力值与试验测量值误差最大达到50%,而考虑流固耦合效应的计算值误差在10%左右;考虑叶片流固耦合效应得到的应力分布更满足实际工程应力与强度分析要求。     

A Revisit of the Phobos Events

The magnetic field disturbances detected by the Phobos-2 spacecraft in 1989 have been suggested to be caused by a ring of dust and/or gas emitted from the Martian moon, Phobos. The physical nature of these ``Phobos events' is examined using results from related investigations over the last twenty years. It is concluded that there is no clear evidence at present to support the association of magnetic field disturbances in the solar wind with Phobos. The situation will be further clarified taking advantage of the multi-spacecraft observations of the Yinghuo-1(YH-1), Mars Express and MAVEN missions beginning in 2012. It is expected that many novel features of solar wind interaction with Phobos (and possibly also Deimos) itself will also be revealed.
