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。     

Mach reflection in steady supersonic flow considering wedge boundary-layer correction

Mach reflection in steady supersonic flow is an important phenomenon having received extensive studies, among which simplified theoretical models to predict the size of Mach stem and other flow structure are of particular interest. Past efforts for such models were based on inviscid assumption while in real cases the flow is viscous. Here in this paper we consider the influence of wedge boundary layer on the Mach stem height. This is done by including a simplified boundary layer model into a recently published inviscid model. In this viscous model, the wedge angle and the trailing edge height, which control the Mach stem height, are replaced by their equivalent ones accounting for the displacement effect of the wedge boundary layer, with the boundary layer assumed to be laminar or fully turbulent. This viscous model is shown to compare well with numerical results by computational fluid dynamics and gives a Mach stem height as function of the Reynolds number and Mach number. It is shown that due to the viscous effect, the Mach stem height is increased, through increasing the effective wedge angle.     

D-region ionospheric disturbances associated with the Extremely Severe Cyclone Fani over North Indian Ocean as observed from two tropical VLF stations

The D-region ionospheric disturbances due to the tropical cyclone Fani over the Indian Ocean have been analysed using Very Low Frequency (VLF) radio communication signals from three transmitters (VTX, NWC and JJI) received at two low latitude stations (Kolkata-CUB and Cooch Behar-CHB). The cyclone Fani formed from a depression on 26th April, 2019 over the Bay of Bengal (Northeastern part of the Indian Ocean) and turned into an extremely severe cyclone with maximum 1-min sustained winds of 250 km/h on 2 May, 2019 which made landfall on 3 May, 2019. Out of six propagation paths, five propagation paths, except the JJI-CHB which was far away from the cyclone track, showed strong perturbations beyond $3\sigma$ level compared to unperturbed signals. Consistent good correlations of VLF signal perturbations with the wind speed and cyclone pressure have been seen for both the receiving stations. Computations of radio signal perturbations at CUB and CHB using the Long Wave Propagation Capability (LWPC) code revealed a Gaussian perturbation in the D-region ionosphere. Analysis of atmospheric temperature at different layers from the NASA’s TIMED satellite revealed a cooling effect near the tropopause and warming effects near the stratopause and upper mesosphere regions on 3 May, 2019. This study shows that the cyclone Fani perturbed the whole atmosphere, from troposphere to ionosphere and the VLF waves responded to the disturbances in the conductivity profiles of the lower ionosphere.     

Interaction mechanisms of shock waves with the boundary layer and wakes in a highly-loaded NGV using hybrid RANS/LES

Accurate predictions of Shock Waves and Boundary Layer Interaction (SWBLI) and strong Shock Waves and Wake Vortices Interaction (SWWVI) in a highly-loaded turbine propose challenges to the currently widely used Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model. In this work, the SWBLI and the SWWVI in a highly-loaded Nozzle Guide Vane (NGV) are studied using a hybrid RANS/LES strategy. The Turbulence Kinetic Energy (TKE) budget and the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method are used to analyze flow mechanisms. Results show that this hybrid RANS/LES method can obtain detailed flow structures for flow mechanisms analysis. Strong shock waves induce boundary layer separation, while the presence of a separation bubble can in turn lead to a Mach reflection phenomenon. The shock waves cause trailing-edge vortices to break clearly, and the wakes, in turn, can change the shocks intensity and direction. Furthermore, the Entropy Generation Rate (EGR) is used to analyze the irreversible loss. It turns out that the SWWVI can reduce the flow field loss. There are several weak shock waves in the NGV flow field, which can increase the irreversible loss. This work offers flow mechanisms analysis and presents the EGR distribution in SWBLI and SWWVI areas in a transonic turbine blade.     

Simulator of pyroshock environment and effect rules of its adjustable parameters

During the launching of spacecraft, the on-board devices will undergo a series of pyroshock environments. In order to verify the reliability of these devices under these pyroshock environments, all of them are needed to take the shock test before launching. This paper has carried out an in-depth research on the simulation method of the pyroshock based on the true explosive excitation. In this study, a simulator containing multiple adjustment parameters is presented and the safety is considered by the design of the protective cover. And the working process of this setup is simulated with the explicit dynamic codes LS-DYNA. What’s more, the effects of the adjustment parameters on the three factors of shock Response Spectrum (SRS) of the resonant board are explored carefully. The rules achieved in this paper are verified by a typical example. The results indicate that the improved simulator can avoid the danger of explosive and make full use of the advantage of actual explosive excitation. And the test condition can be quickly realized at the simulator according to the effect rules of the three adjustable parameters.     

MHD surface waves – a source of global magnetospheric modes (resonances)?

Various mechanisms have been proposed for explanation of the global magnetospheric modes whose frequency peaks are in the frequency range 1–4 mHz. Recent papers claim: basic characteristics of the 1–4 mHz activity events observed on ground give evidences for an existence of MHD surface mode excited on the Earth magnetopause. The discrete frequencies of such MHD surface wave modes suggest an emergence of standing wave structures along the magnetic field lines lying on the magnetopause. Such discrete frequencies of MHD surface waves on magnetopause however, are not stable, at all. Contrariwise, MHD surface wave modes supported by the two plasma boundaries – the magnetopause and the plasmapause, are in accordance with existing experimental facts: discrete set of almost stable frequencies, field amplitude peaks and positions, energy dissipation, and field distribution from high to low latitudes. Mechanisms of the global magnetospheric mode resonance are pointed out as well as tools for their identification and discrimination.     

Coronal Heating: a Comparison of Ion-cyclotron and Gravity Damping Models

SOHO/UVCS data indicate that minor ions in the corona are heated more than hydrogen, and that coronal heating results in T_⊥ larger than T_‖. Analogous behavior has been known from in situ measurements in solar wind for many years. Here we compare and contrast two mechanisms which have been proposed to account for the above behavior: ion-cyclotron resonance and gravity damping.

Acoustic κ-density fluctuation waves in suprathermal κ function fluids

We describe a new wave mode similar to the acoustic wave in which both density and velocity fluctuate. Unlike the acoustic wave in which the underlying distribution is Maxwellian, this new wave mode occurs when the underlying distribution is a suprathermal κ-function and involves fluctuations in the power law index, κ. This wave mode always propagates faster than the acoustic wave with an equivalent effective temperature and becomes the acoustic wave in the Maxwellian limit as κ → ∞.

用于爆震引燃的激波聚焦无反应流场数值模拟

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。
