The supercritical airfoil (NASA SC (02)-0714) is selected considering the fact that most modern jet transport aircrafts that operate in the transonic flow regime (cruise at transonic speeds) employ supercritical airfoil sections. Here it is to be noted that a decrease in the transonic wave drag without loss in lift would result in an increased lift to drag ratio, which is a key range parameter that can potentially increase both the range and endurance of the aircraft. The major geometric bump parameters such as length, height and span are altered for both the two-dimensional and three-dimensional bumps in order to obtain the optimum location and shape of the bump. Once an optimum standalone three-dimensional bump is acquired, an array of bumps is manually placed spanwise of an unswept supercritical wing and analyzed under fully turbulent flow conditions. Different configurations are tested with varying three-dimensional bump spacing in order to determine the contribution of bump spacing on overall performance. The results show a 14% drag reduction and a consequent 16% lift to drag ratio rise at the design Mach number for the optimum arrangement of bumps along the wing span.展开更多

The results show the roll is static unstable in small angles; the roll dynamic test curves present obvious non-linearity characteristics, and the model vibrates violently even When the angle of attack is small, which may be provoked by the non-symmetry transition from the small transverse flow around the nose of model. Subsequent research adopts longitudinal trips to generate symmetry transition at the fore-body of the model. As a result, the lateral stability of the aircrafts is apparently improved. The results show that the lateral stability of hypersonic aircrafts is very weak, and the main reason for this is lateral perturbation of flow over the nose, among which asymmetric transition weighs the most. Adoption of longitudinal trips could spur fixed transition of lateral flow, reduce the transition asymmetry of lateral flow, and strengthen the lateral stability of hypersonic aircrafts at the same time.展开更多

In the supersonic part of the incoming flow, shock waves appear in the front part of the blades and propagate in the upstream direction. In case of multiple blade rows, steady simulations have to impose an azimuthal averaging (mixing plane) which prevents these shock waves to extend upstream. In the present paper, several mixing plane locations are numerically tested and compared in a supersonic configuration. An analytical method is used to describe the shock pattern. It enables to take a critical look at the CFD (computational fluid dynamics) steady results. Based on this method, the shock losses are also evaluated. The good agreement between analytical and numerical values shows that this method can be useful to wisely forecast the mixing plane location and to evaluate the shift in performances due to the presence of the mixing plane.展开更多

The contact shapes between the roller and input and output disks are formulated by using the classical Hertz contact theory. Based on the formulated equations, different system factors affecting the maximum Hertz stress in the elliptical and strip contacts of the full toroidal CVT are explored, which include the properties of the contacting material (Young’s modulus), operating condition (pushing load) and geometrical parameters (aspect cavity ratio, aspect roller ratio). The comparative results reveal the relations between the maximum Hertz stress and the speed ratio in the form of graphs. These graphs give useful information for designer to know the maximum Hertz stress during operation in such systems.展开更多

This hybrid-type system is based on wheel-rail method, but it enables to overcome the speed limitation by adhesion because it is operated through a non-contact method using a linear motor as a propulsion system and reduce the overall construction costs by its compatibility with the conventional railway systems. Therefore, a comparative analysis on electromagnetic characteristics according to the structural combinations on the stator-mover of LSM (linear synchronous motor) for VHST (very high speed train) maintaining the conventional wheel-rail method is conducted, and the structure of coreless superconducting LSM suitable for 600 km/h VHST is finally proposed in this paper.展开更多

The rotor is a transonic compressor with a tip speed of 454 m/s (15OO ft/s) anda relatively high pressure ratio of 2.1. It was tested in isolation with a circumferentially uniform inletflow so that the flow through it should be steady apart from any effects of passage to passage geometry variation and mechanical vibration. As such it represents the simplest possible type of test forthree-dimensional turbomachinery flow solvers. However, the rotor still presents a real challenge to3D viscous flow solvers because the shock wave-boundary layer interaction is strong and the effects ofviscosity are dominant in determining the flow deviation and hence the pressure ratio. Eleven ’blind’solutions were submitted and in addition a ’non-blind’ solution was used to prepare for the exercise-This paper reviews the fiow in the test case and the comparisons of the CFD solutions with the testdata. Lessons for both the Flow Physics in transonic has and for the application of CFD to suchmachines are pointed out.展开更多

The two-dimensional coupled implicit Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and the RNG k?ε turbulent model were employed to investigate the flow fields of cavities with different geometric configurations, namely the classical rectangular, triangular and semi-circular, and the cavities with the fixed depth and length-to-depth ratio. At the same time, the drag force performances of the cavities were estimated and compared. The obtained results show that the numerical results are in very good agreement with the experimental data, and the different scales of grid make only a slight difference from the numerical results. The intensity of the trailing shock wave is much stronger than that of the leading one, and the area around the trailing edge of the cavities plays an important role in the chemical reaction in the scramjet combustor. With the fixed depth and length-to-depth ratio, the triangular cavity can strengthen the turbulent combustion in the scramjet combustor further, but impose the most additional drag force on the scramjet engine. The classical rectangular one can impose the least additional drag force on the engine, but the function of strengthening the combustion is the weakest. The influence of the semi-circular one is the moderate, but the machining process is more complex than the other two configurations.展开更多

This is achieved by mounting a two-dimensional shock-shock interaction generator below the lifting surface. The shock-shock interaction theory in conjunction with a three dimensional correction and checked with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to analyze the lift and drag forces as function of the geometrical parameters and inflow Mach number. Through this study, though limited to only inviscid flow, we conclude that it is possible to obtain a high lift to drag ratio by suitably arranging the shock interaction generator.展开更多

At present a combination of the transverse injection scheme and any other flame holder has been widely employed in hypersonic propulsion systems to promote the mixing process between the fuel and the supersonic freestream; combustion efficiency has been improved thereby, as well as engine thrust. Research on mixing techniques for the transverse injection flow field is summarized from four aspects, namely the jet-to-crossflow pressure ratio, the geometric configuration of the injection port, the number of injection ports, and the injection angle. In conclusion, urgent investigations of mixing techniques of the transverse injection flow field are pro- posed, especiaUy data mining in the quantitative analytical results for transverse injection flow field, based on results from multi-objective design optimization theory.展开更多

Based on the analysis of the flow field structures and aerodynamic characteristics, the behaviours relevant to the LPM jet were discussed in detail, including the drag reduction effect, the periodic oscillation and the feedback loop. The obtained results show that the flow oscillation characteristic of the LPM jet is low-frequency and high-amplitude while that of the SPM jet is high-frequency and low-amplitude. Compared with the clearly dominant frequencies of the LPM jet, the SPM jet exhibits a broad-band structure. The LPM jet can sustain drag reduction effect until the angle of attack is 8°, and the lift-to-drag ratio of the vehicle is effectively improved by 6.95% at angle of attack of 6°. The self-sustained oscillation process was studied by a typical oscillating cycle of the drag force coefficient and the variation of the instantaneous pressure distribution,which reveals an off-axial flapping motion of the conical shear layer. The variation of the subsonic recirculation zone ahead of the vehicle nose strengthens the understanding of the jet behavior including the source of instability in the long penetration mode and the mechanism of the feedback loop. The aim of this paper is to advance the technology readiness level for the counterflowing jet applied as an active control technology in hypersonic flows by gaining a better insight of the flow physics.展开更多

Based on the analysis of the flow field structures and aerodynamic characteristics, the behaviours relevant to the LPM jet were discussed in detail, including the drag reduction effect, the periodic oscillation and the feedback loop. The obtained results show that the flow oscillation characteristic of the LPM jet is low-frequency and high-amplitude while that of the SPM jet is high-frequency and low-amplitude. Compared with the clearly dominant frequencies of the LPM jet, the SPM jet exhibits a broad-band structure. The LPM jet can sustain drag reduction effect until the angle of attack is 8°, and the lift-to-drag ratio of the vehicle is effectively improved by 6.95% at angle of attack of 6°. The self-sustained oscillation process was studied by a typical oscillating cycle of the drag force coefficient and the variation of the instantaneous pressure distribution,which reveals an off-axial flapping motion of the conical shear layer. The variation of the subsonic recirculation zone ahead of the vehicle nose strengthens the understanding of the jet behavior including the source of instability in the long penetration mode and the mechanism of the feedback loop. The aim of this paper is to advance the technology readiness level for the counterflowing jet applied as an active control technology in hypersonic flows by gaining a better insight of the flow physics.
