It is known that ...Numerical simulations have been carried out for a supersonic three-dimensional rectangular arc nozzle, where a secondary flow toward the center of the curvature occurs due to the shape of the nozzle. It is known that secondary flow causes longitudinal vortices to form near the wall of the nozzle corner, making the nozzle outlet flow unstable and induces loss of transport energy. When the working fluid is a condensable gas with relatively large latent heat such as moist air or steam, rapid accelerated expansion in the nozzle causes non-equilibrium condensation due to supersaturation. After the release of latent heat during phase transition, nozzle flow continues expanding at an equilibrium saturation condition. In the absence of foreign particles, e.g. ions or dust particles, condensation nuclei are formed in the gas itself causing non-equilibrium homogeneous condensation. Supersonic nozzle flow properties vary considerably due to the occurrence of condensation phenomenon. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of non-equilibrium homogeneous condensation on the longitudinal vortices which form in the range close to the corner of rectangular arc nozzle numerically.展开更多

When the shock wave is strong enough to separate the boundary layer, the shock wave is bifurcated, and the 2nd and 3rd shock waves are formed downstream of the shock wave. The effect of a series of shock waves thus formed, called shock train, is considered to be similar to the effect of one normal shock wave, and the shock train is called pseudo-shock wave. There are many researches on the configuration of the shock wave. However, so far, very few researches have been done on the asymmetric characteristics of the leading shock wave in supersonic nozzles. In the present study, the effect of nozzle geometry on asymmetric shock wave in supersonic nozzles has been investigated experimentally.展开更多

In this case, the shock wave/boundary layer interaction becomes complex because an adverse pressure gradient is imposed by the shock wave on the boundary layer. Several types of passive control techniques have been applied to shock wave/boundary layer interaction in the transonic flow. Furthermore, possibilities for the control of flow fields due to non-equilibrium condensation have been shown so far and in this flow field, non-equilibrium condensation occurs across the passage of the nozzle and it causes the total pressure loss in the flow field. However, local occurrence of non-equilibrium condensation in the flow field may change the characteristics of total pressure loss compared with that by non-equilibrium condensation across the passage of flow field and there are few for researches of locally occurred non-equilibrium condensation in a transonic flow field. The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of locally occurred non-equilibrium condensation on the shock strength and total pressure loss on a transonic internal flow field with circular bump. As a result, it was found that shock strength in case with local occurrence of non-equilibrium condensation is reduced compared with that of no condensation. Further, the amount of increase in the total pressure loss in case with local occurrence of non-equilibrium condensation was also reduced compared with that by non-equilibrium condensation across the passage of flow field.展开更多

Across an expansion wave the static pressure, temperature and density decrease, as a result, negative pressure is given behind the expansion wave generated in the water, and then a tensile stress is induced. As an acoustic impedance of the silicon resin is almost similar to that of water, the interface of air-silicon resin would be regarded as the same with that of the air-water. A high voltage discharge was used as an energy source of underwater shock wave. When the underwater shock wave reflects on this interface, it is already clear that the shock wave converts to the expansion wave. The generation and focusing of the expansion wave were carried out and the phenomena were observed by flow visualization using a high-speed camera.展开更多
