Study on the mechanism of backward-facing step flow controlled by DBD plasma excitation

摘要:
为探究介质阻挡放电（dielectric barrier discharge, DBD）等离子体控制外掠后台阶流场结构机理，通过数值模拟获得了DBD激励诱导流场结构与大尺度自由驻涡耦合流动过程，利用本征正交分解（proper orthogonal decomposition, POD）分析方法提取了耦合流场的主要含能模态分布特征，基于湍动能分布等流场特征信息探讨了流动结构特性及其相互作用，分析对比了不同激励参数下的流场结构发展演变过程。结果表明：非定常等离子体激励增强了剪切层的动量传输能力，使得回流区中的小尺度涡结构被抑制，分离区长度减小。通过POD模态分析，发现中频激励与低、高频激励实现流动控制的机理存在显著差异。低、高频激励下剪切层位置的往复摆动是等离子体激励作用下诱导流场的主要运动形式，而中频激励的作用则体现在对小尺度湍流脉动作用上。
Abstract:To probe for the structural mechanisms governing flow patterns over a backward-facing step controlled by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma, numerical simulations were employed to analyze the induced flow field structure coupled with large-scale, free-trapped vortices. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method was utilized to extract the primary energetic modes within this coupled flow field. Leveraging this characteristic information, an investigation into the flow structure’s distinct features and interactions was conducted, along with a comparison of the developmental evolution of the flow field structure under varying excitation parameters. The results indicated that unsteady plasma excitation enhanced the momentum transfer capability of the shear layer, thereby suppressing the formation of small-scale vortex structures and reducing the length of the separation region. Through POD modal analysis, it revealed that there were significant disparities in the mechanism of flow control under different excitation frequencies. Specifically, under both low and high-frequency excitations, the predominant form of motion in the plasma-induced flow field involved a reciprocating motion of the shear layer. However, medium-frequency excitation exerted its influence primarily through small-scale turbulent pulsations.
