Lamb-Oseen vortex is observed. Simulation results show that vortex cavitation exists, and cloud cavitation begins to occur when inlet pressure reaches 7 MPa. Cavitation and cavitation-shedding are enhanced by the increment of inlet pressure. The main frequencies of the pressure oscillations of vortex cavitation and cloud cavitation increase with inlet pressure increasing. By comparing results of local cavitation and facet cavitation, it is known that cloud cavitation has a greater influence than vortex cavitation. Upon increasing the wedge length, the main frequency of vortex cavitation increases whereas that of cloud cavitation decreases, the volume fraction of the vapor phase and the energy efficiency decrease. Considering the above characteristics and the easiness of the process, the optimal wedge length is 0.03 mm.展开更多

The computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method is used to simulate numerically the impact e ect of gas jet from aircraft engines on a jet blast deflector by using the Reynolds?averaged Navier?Stokes(RANS) equations and turbulence models. First of all, during the pre?processing of numerical computation, a sub?domains hybrid meshing scheme is adopted to reduce mesh number and improve mesh quality. Then, four di erent turbulence models includ?ing shear?stress transport(SST) k-w, standard k-w, standard k-ε and Reynolds stress model(RSM) are used to compare and verify the correctness of numerical methods for gas jet from a single aircraft engine. The predicted values are in good agreement with the experimental data, and the distribution and regularity of shock wave, velocity, pressure and temperature of a single aircraft engine are got. The results show that SST k?w turbulence model is more suitable for the numerical simulation of compressible viscous gas jet with high prediction accuracy. Finally, the impact e ect of gas jet from two aircraft engines on a jet blast deflector is analyzed based on the above numerical method, not only the flow parameters of gas jet and the interaction regularity between gas jet and the jet blast deflector are got, but also the thermal shock properties and dynamic impact characteristics of gas jet impacting the jet blast deflector are got. So the dangerous activity area of crew and equipments on the flight deck can be predicted qualitatively and quantitatively. The proposed research explores out a correct numerical method for the fluid–solid interaction during the impact process of supersonic gas jet, which provides an e ective technical support for design, thermal ablation and structural damage analysis of a new jet blast deflector.展开更多

This deflector in a rectangular nozzle generates the rectangular coaxial jets. The effect of the slant angle of the deflectors on the flow characteristics and the spread of the rectangular jet was investigated experimentally and by large-eddy simulation. The experiment and the numerical simulation were carried out at a Reynolds number of 9000. The rectangular jet with no deflectors generates a vortex ring from the nozzle exit. The vortex ring collapses in the downstream region and the outline of the jet changes from rectangular to diamond-shaped as a result of the axis-switching phenomenon. The rectangular jet with divergent and convergent deflectors shows particularly noticeable changes in the flow characteristics and vortical structures, as compared to the case with no deflectors. In the case of the rectangular jet with divergent deflectors (slant angle of <i style="font-family:" font-size:13.3333px;white-space:normal;"="">α</i><span style="font-family:" font-size:13.3333px;white-space:normal;"=""> = 6<span style="white-space:nowrap;">°</span>), minor axis spread is promoted more than major axis spread, and axis switching occurs closer to the nozzle exit than that in the case of no deflectors. The outline of the jet also changes from lateral rectangular to vertical rectangular as a result of axis switching. On the other hand, in the case of a rectangular jet with convergent deflectors (</span><i style="font-family:" font-size:13.3333px;white-space:normal;"="">α</i><span style="font-family:" font-size:13.3333px;white-space:normal;"=""> = -6<span style="white-space:nowrap;">°</span>), minor axis spread is suppressed more than major axis spread, and axis switching occurs farther from the nozzle exit than that in the case with no deflectors. The outline of the jet does not change until the downstream region. Therefore, the spread and the axis-switching location for the rectangular jet can be controlled by the deflectors inside the rectangular nozzle.</span>展开更多

To investigate this issue and understand the internal characteristics of the deflector jet valve, a realistic numerical model is constructed and a three-dimensional simulation carried out that displays a complex flow pattern in the deflector jet structure. Then six phases of the flow pattern are presented, and the defects of the two-dimensional simulation are revealed. Based on the simulation results, it is found that the jet in the deflector has a longer core area and the fluid near the shunt wedge cannot resist the impact of the high-speed fluid. Therefore, two assumptions about the flow distribution are presented by which to construct a more complete theoretical model. The receiver pressure and prestage pressure gain are significantly enhanced in the calculations. Finally, special experiments on the prestage of the servo valve are performed, and the pressure performance of the numerical simulation and the theoretical calculation agree well with the experimental data. Finally, the internal mechanism described by the theoretical and numerical models is verified. From this research,more accurate numerical and theoretical models are proposed by which to figure out the internal characteristics of the deflector jet valve.展开更多
