The Calculation of Incompressible Wall Boundary Layer Using GAO-YONG Turbulence Equations
CHEN Guang-ye, GAO Ge, YIN Xing-yu
2003, 18(1): 2-7.
Abstract:
Unlike widely used turbulence models,the GAO YONG equations use no empirical coefficients or wall functions.In this paper,two dimensional,stationary,and incompressible transitional/turbulent boundary layer with zero pressure gradient is numerically simulated with GAO YONG turbulence model.Employing staggered grid arrangement,an incompressible SIMPLE code with a second order QUICK scheme is used.The calculation successfully simulates the flow and predicts the fundamental properties of the boundary layer such as Cf,the log law,and the defect law,etc,which are close to the experimental data.All the results further verify the adaptability of the equations to real turbulent flow.
Numerical Investigation of Inlet with Swept Compress Ramp
ZHU Yu, LEE Chun-hian, LI Tian
2003, 18(1): 8-14.
Abstract:
A numerical investigation was conducted about the shock structure at the entrance of the inlets and the effects of entrance flows on aft duct flowfields for a Caret inlet,and also the effect of the fillet circle and shielding region of oblique shocks.N S equations with the standard k-εturbulence model and near wall functions were employed to predict the flowfields.The results showed that asymmetry of oblique shock doesn't affect evidently duct flow due to the existence of strong normal shock.But the flow in the intersection of dual ramp affects evidently the flowfield of aft duct.

YE Jian, LIN Guo-hua, ZOU Zheng-ping, LU Li-peng
2003, 18(1): 38-45.
Abstract:
Using high order finite difference scheme,a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of low Reynolds number flow around a NACA0012 airfoil was carried out.The Reynolds number based on chord is 1.0×10.4,the angles of attack are 0°,4° and 10°.The computation results indicate that the statistical traits of wake region are similar at angles of attack 0° and 4°.In the wake region distancing trailing edge 0.3 chord,ordered vortex streets exist,the extremum of vorticity and minimum of pressure are located in the center of vortices.Along the streamline,the absolute value of vorticity decreases gradually,while the minimum of pressure increase step by step.The statistical traits of wake region at angle of attack 10° are different from that at other two angles.The absorption of vorticity and formation of high pressure region are two conditions of vortices shedding.

ZHOU Zheng-gui, HU Jun
2003, 18(1): 46-50.
Abstract:
Flow of the passage mid span section in a low speed axial compressor is simulated using two dimensional Navier Stokes equations.It is found that the calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental data.The characteristics of blade force frequency chart are investigated by using the Fourier series method.Results show that for different axial gaps between the rotor and stator,fluctuation of the unsteady blade force is mostly determined by the first rank Fourier component.Simplifying the fluctuation as sine function,it can be derived that as long as the number ratio of the disturbing to the disturbed blade row is not integer,the total unsteady blade force fluctuation from the disturbed blade row will approach to zero.

FANG Xiang-jun, LIU Si-yong, WANG Ping, YAN Shan-ping
2003, 18(1): 76-81.
Abstract:
It's very difficult to design transonic contra rotating turbine blades because of its large flow deflection angle character.The paper mainly discusses how to design contra rotating turbine large deflection angle blades with high order polynomial method.This method keeps the main dynamic performance design parameters unchanged,such as pitch,unguided turning and throat.But the aims of controlling the distribution of gas velocity in the supersonic large deflection angle cascade and restraining the shock produced and its intensity can be achieved by adjusting and optimizing the other subsidiary parameters,and controling the curvature of both pressure side and suction side and the passage convergence of cascade.The numerical experiments show that the high order polynomial analytic method can quickly,efficiently and reliably design high performance supersonic large deflection angle preliminary profiles.
Affection of Canister Surface Thermal Emittance on Heat Receiver
HOU Xin-bin, YUAN Xiu-gan
2003, 18(1): 82-86.
Abstract:
Heat receiver is one of the key parts of the SDPS.It absorbs the solar flux and stores thermal energy.Since the surface temperatures of canisters are different,the reradiation in cavity will change the flux distribution on the tube outer surfaces,and the thermal emittance of the canister outer surfaces will affect heat receiver thermal performance significantly.The heat receiver cavity radiation mathematical model and the gas tube heat model were used for two values of surface thermal emittance to calculate heat loss,energy absorbed by gas,tube maximum temperature,gas exit temperature and liquid PCM fraction.The results obtained for these two values of emittance were compared and analysed between two surface thermal emittances.It is shown that higher surface thermal emittance is very important to improve the heat receiver thermal performance.
Numerical Simulation of Supercooled Water Droplets Impingement on Icing Surfaces
ZHANG Da-lin, YANG Xi, ANG Hai-song
2003, 18(1): 87-91.
Abstract:
It is well known that ice accretion on aircraft component would take place when an aircraft flies in clouds at sub freezing temperature.The presence of ice accretion on unprotected aircraft airfoil can change the airfoil shape and can lead to a number of aerodynamic degradation problems.To compute the supercooled water impingement on icing surfaces,the Reynolds averaged Navier Stokes equations and k ε model are used to simulate the airflow over the surface in the present paper.A Eulerian model for air flows containing water droplet is used to compute the water droplet trajectories.The finite control volume formulation is proposed to solve the droplet problem.In order to avoid the numerical diffusion and to increase the accuracy,the MUSCAL scheme is appropriated for approximating the convection terms of governing equations.The Navier Stokes equations are solved independently from the Eulerian droplet equations.While the velocity field of airflow is achieved,the droplet flow equations can be computed.Both the airflow and droplet equations are computed on non staggered meshes.When solving Navier Stokes equations,the pressure correction algorithm SIMPLER is adopted.Results show that changes in MVD and angle of attack have greater effects on impingement limits and collection efficiencies.

2003, 18(1): 97-100.
Abstract:
In order to obtain the Deflagration to Detonation Transition (DDT) distance in the detonative tube,an ion probe system based on comparative electric circuit was made.This system was used to measure the flame propagation velocities along the tube,and furthermore to determine the DDT distance.As compared with high frequency pressure transducers,this system was simpler and cheaper,especially it could be used in the high temperature condition for a longer time.In this paper,the DDT distances of acetylene and oxygen mixture were measured with this system,and the results were consistent with that of high frequency pressure transducers.

LIU Xiang-xin, ZHANG Xue-ren, YAN Xiao-jun, NIE Jing-xu
2003, 18(1): 101-108.
Abstract:
In this paper,based on the theory of damage mechanics, using damage equivalent stress to calculate the damage under 3 D stress status and taking the close effect into account,a subroutine to calculate damage and predict fatigue life on ANSYS platform was developed by APDL and UPFs of ANSYS.The initiation and growth of cracks are simulated by damage developing.The effect of damage on material properties has been taken into considerations by two ways,one is the method of stiffness matrix modification,the other is the effective stress method.The comparison between fatigue test and calculation results indicates that this method is right and feasible,and high accuracy can be obtained when there are no initial defects in PM components.Concerning components with initial defects,a method to simplify the initial defects by means of initial damage was put forward,and was used to evaluate the life of a specimen with initial defects.The method developed in this paper can be used to predict the life of PM components accurately as long as its initial damage has been obtained in relation to its initial status exactly.If the distribution probability of initial damage is known,the reliability design and evaluation of PM components can be carried out by this method.

MENG Tao, LIAO Ming-fu, LI Hui
2003, 18(1): 109-113.
Abstract:
In order to reveal the defect signature of rolling element bearings or gearboxes,the vibration signals measured on them are usually demodulated by the envelope analysis,i.e.Hilbert Transform.However,the defect signature obtained by this demodulation is often masked by noise.In this paper,a new method of demodulation,Delayed Correlation Envelope analysis is established to suppress the noise.The autocorrelation functions of vibration signals measured on bearings and gearboxes are first computed,which will reduce the noise greatly,but not change the modulation signature of the signals.Then the autocorrelation functions are delayed for some time lags,which will reduce the noise further.The delayed autocorrelation is then demodulated by Hillbert Transform.The effect of time delay on the demodulation results is also discussed here.The effectiveness of this method is confirmed by both simulation and experiment.

CAO Guang-zhong, YU Lie, XIE You-bai
2003, 18(1): 124-129.
Abstract:
Active magnetic bearing (AMB) is widely applied in many industrial fields.When the rotor becomes larger and larger,it is more difficult to manufacture a laminated rotor.Hence,solid rotor is utilized in the large rotor AMB system.Eddy currents are caused inside the rotor when a solid rotor rotates in a radial magnetic bearing.The eddy currents change the magnetic field of the radial magnetic bearing and,therefore,the forces on the rotor include not only the levitation force but also the tangential force.The tangential force causes magnetic damping and losses.This paper presents a magnetic field analytical model of magnetic bearing solid rotor system, and the forces and losses within a practical AMB system are calculated.It is shown that the calculation results are in good agreement with those of experimental study.

ZHANG Suo-huai, SHEN Yun-wen, DONG Hai-jun, LIU Meng-jun
2003, 18(1): 151-157.
Abstract:
The rattling model of a one stage gear system was established,in which mass unbalance,speed fluctuation of driving shaft and backlash of the gear pair were considered.Its governing equations represent a mapping system.By means of numerical simulation,three rattling conditions were researched:(1) speed fluctuation exists only;(2) mass unbalance exists only;(3) both coexist.According to the calculation results,at different inspiring factors and amplitudes,there are different rattling dynamic characteristics,for example,one period,multiple period and quasi period.The rattling resulting from speed fluctuation is different from that resulting from mass unbalance.The rattling characteristics resulting from both simultaneously are different fro-m overlapped characteristics resulting from both individually.It is more reasonable that the factors of speed and mass unbalance are taken together to investigate the rattling dynamics of a gear system.

ZHANG Ping, LI Shi-peng, LIU Yu-qun
2003, 18(1): 158-160.
Abstract:
The three sets of F t curves from impulsive microthrusters tests were studied,which are used for the attitude correction of kinetic missiles or hypervelocity rockets.It is found from the study that the amount of the igniter charge can be of significant effect on the F t curves and internal ballistic performances of an impulsive microthruster,due to its ratio of igniter charge to main propellant charge being obviously different from that of conventional SRM.The amount of igniter charge must be strictly controlled so that the satisfactory internal ballistic performances can be obtained.
