中心线变化规律和膨胀比对圆转方过渡段流场形态的影响

为了获得流道中心线变化规律和截面膨胀比ε对圆转方过渡段流场形态的影响规律,在某型发动机的真实工况下,分别对3种中心线变化规律(前缓后急、缓急相当、前急后缓)和5种膨胀比(1.00,1.01,1.03,1.05,1.07)的圆转方过渡段结构进行建模计算,得到了圆转方过渡段内部流场形态、总压恢复系数和流向涡涡量的变化规律。结果表明:不同结构的横截面静压和速度分布差异较大。前急后缓结构在圆转方横截面出现明显的角涡;在三种中心线变化规律结构中总压恢复系数沿流向均呈下降趋势,流向涡涡量沿流向均呈先增大后减小的趋势,三种结构的流向涡涡量最大值从大到小依次为前急后缓结构、前缓后急结构和缓急相当结构,最大最小值相差19%。随着膨胀比的增大,在圆转方横截面会出现角涡;在不同膨胀比结构中总压恢复系数沿流向均呈下降趋势,流向涡涡量沿流向均呈先增大后减小的趋势,膨胀比1.03结构的局部流向涡无量纲涡量比1.07结构小40.9%。缓急相当中心线变化规律和膨胀比ε=1.03为最佳结构参数。     

结合局部次流循环的变几何轴对称进气道研究

针对常规定几何轴对称进气道在低马赫数工作时流量系数低、溢流阻力大的问题,提出了一种结合局部次流循环的变几何轴对称进气道,其通过平移进气道一级锥并引入局部次流循环重构前体激波系相结合的方法,保证了进气道在较宽马赫数范围内的流量捕获能力。通过仿真方法验证了这一设计概念的可行性,并与常规定几何轴对称进气道进行了性能对比。结果表明:该新概念可调轴对称进气道在低马赫数工作时具有良好的流量捕获性能,并且在整个工作范围内保持了较高的总压恢复性能。与按传统方法设计的定几何轴对称进气道相比,其流量系数和总压恢复系数在工作范围内的最大改善幅度分别达到27.45%和14.31%。此外,选择合适的非控制状态贴口马赫数对该设计概念的实现效果具有明显的影响。

Space weather and commercial airlines

Space weather phenomena can effect many areas of commercial airline operations including avionics, communications and GPS navigation systems. Of particular importance at present is the recently introduced EU legislation requiring the monitoring of aircrew radiation exposure, including any variations at aircraft altitudes due to solar activity. With the introduction of new ultra-long-haul “over-the-pole” routes, “more-electric” aircraft in the future, and the increasing use of satellites in the operation, the need for a better understanding of the space weather impacts on future airline operations becomes all the more compelling. This paper will present the various space weather effects, some provisional results of an ongoing 3-year study to monitor cosmic radiation in aircraft, and conclude by summarising some of the identified key operational issues, which must be addressed, with the help of the science community, if the airlines want to benefit from the availability of space weather services.     

Night-time total electron content enhancements at equatorial anomaly region in China

This paper presents small scale (duration ?1 h, ΔTEC ? 1TECU) night-time total electron content (TEC) enhancements observed at the equatorial anomaly region in China, for the first time. The data is from a GPS receiver chain established in 2005 by Institute of Center for Space Science and Applied Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences and a GPS receiver of International GPS Service (IGS), located between Fuzhou (26.1°N, 119.3°E) and Nanning (22.8°N, 108.3°E). Two other GPS observations of IGS taken at higher latitude were also used to investigate the localization of such phenomenon. The characteristics of the night-time TEC enhancement are examined with two case studies. The TEC increases about 1–3TECU, intermittently. While the night-time TEC enhancement mainly occurs at the equatorial anomaly region, it can be observed at middle latitude as well. The spatial size of the enhancement region is less than 5° in longitude. The primary statistical study shows that the TEC enhancement is more often observed in spring and autumn, but rarely in summer. It has no dependence on geomagnetic activity. The enhancement can occur both before and after midnight.     

The effect of total solar eclipse of October 3, 2005, on the total electron content over Europe

GPS observations from EUREF permanent GPS network were used to observe the response of TEC (Total Electron Content) to the total solar eclipse on October 3, 2005, under quiet geomagnetic conditions of the daytime ionosphere. The effect of the eclipse was detected in diurnal variations and more distinctly in the variations of TEC along individual satellite passes. The trough-like variations with a gradual decrease and followed by an increase of TEC at the time of the eclipse were observed over a large region. The depression of TEC amounted to 3–4 TECU. The maximum depression was observed over all stations located at the maximum path of the solar eclipse. The delay of a minimum level of TEC with respect to the maximum phase of the eclipse was about 20–30 min.     

Temporal evolution analysis of storm-enhanced density during an intense magnetic storm on March 2015

An intense Storm Enhancement Density (SED) event with the magnetic storm occurred on 17–24 March 2015 has been investigated. The morphological character of the SED during different phase of the magnetic storm is examined and compared with the non-storm time. Three intensity indexes, i.e., “general” SED index, “heavy” SED index and “severe” SED index, are defined to represent the intensity of SED respectively represented by the numbers of the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) grids with TEC > 60 TECu, TEC > 80 TECu and TEC > 100 TECu. The temporal evolution of the SED intensity indexes during a time span covering the non-storm time and the magnetic storm time have also been investigated. The SED exhibits a shape with two parallel slender troughs in the middle and low latitudes during the non-storm time and then gradually develops into an ellipse structure as the development of magnetic storm. The intensity of SED and the fluctuation of the TEC evolution are generally corresponding to the fluctuation of Dst index. The analyzing results enrich our understanding of the temporal and spatial evolution of the ionospheric SED.
