摘要:
旋流波瓣混合器可以促进空气涡轮火箭(ATR)燃烧室内空气与富燃燃气的高效混合,提升发动机燃烧室燃烧效率。基于发动机地面工况下燃烧室进口参数,通过数值模拟的方法,对比了4种波瓣旋转角度(0°、3°、5°、7°)对燃烧室波瓣尾缘涡量和温度分布的影响,从燃烧效率、压力损失和热混合效率3个方面对不同波瓣旋转角度下的发动机性能进行了分析。研究结果表明:波瓣进行旋转可以增强流向涡强度,促进热混合效率提升,波瓣旋转角度为5°时热混合效率提升了1.2%;波瓣旋转角度为5°时的燃烧效率最高,出口燃烧效率比常规波瓣混合器提升了3.35%;燃烧室总压损失主要由燃烧反应引起,波瓣旋转会增强燃烧效果,并一定程度增大压力损失。

Abstract:The swirl lobe mixer can promote efficient mixing of air and fuel-rich gas in the combustion chamber of the air-turbo-rocket (ATR) and improve the combustion efficiency of the engine combustion chamber. Based on combustion chamber inlet parameters under engine ground conditions, the effects of four lobe rotation angles (0°, 3°, 5°, 7°) on the vortex and temperature distribution at the tail edge of combustion chamber lobes were compared by numerical simulation, and the engine performance under different lobe rotation angles was analyzed from three aspects: combustion efficiency, pressure loss and hot mixing efficiency. The results showed that lobe rotation can enhance the flow vortex intensity and promote the thermal mixing efficiency. When the lobe rotation angle was 5°, the thermal mixing efficiency increased by 1.2%. The combustion efficiency was the highest when the lobe rotation angle was 5°, and the combustion efficiency at the outlet was 3.35% higher than that of the conventional lobe mixer. The total pressure loss of the combustion chamber was mainly caused by the combustion reaction, and the lobe rotation could enhance the combustion effect and increase the pressure loss to a certain extent.
