Abstract The effect of nozzle lip thickness and velocity ratio on coaxial subsonic jet mixing, at different Mach numbers, has been studied experimentally and numerically. Decay of coaxial subsonic jets emanating from coaxial nozzles of lip thickness 0.7, 1.7 and 2.65 mm with velocity ratio (VR) from 0.2 to 1.0 at primary jet exit Mach numbers of 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 has been studied. Free jet without co-flow (VR0) was also studied for comparison. Jet centerline Mach number decay, turbulence and velocity variation in the radial direction are analyzed. The results show that mixing the coaxial jet at a low-velocity ratio is better than a high-velocity ratio, at all Mach numbers of the present study. The nozzle lip thickness has a significant influence on the secondary jet. Mixing of the jet in the presence of VR0.2 coaxial jet is found to be the highest. Characteristic decay of Mach 0.8 and 1.0 jet for lip thickness 1.7 and 2.65 mm is faster than lip thickness 0.7 mm. For a given lip thickness, increasing of velocity ratio is found to retard the mixing between primary and secondary jets.

Abstract In order to explore the influence of the infrared stealth technology on the performance of the integrated helicopter/engine system, an integrated modeling method of helicopter/engine/infrared suppressor is proposed. Firstly, based on the power calculation model of the helicopter, combined with the high-precision turboshaft engine component-level model, an integrated simulation platform is built, which takes into account the nonlinear characteristics. Then, the aerodynamic characteristics of infrared suppressors under different engine operation states are studied by CFD numerical computation method, and the infrared radiation characteristics are obtained through combining the positive and negative ray tracing method and narrow band model method. Ultimately, the utilization of the power turbine outlet stagnation pressure is employed as the pivotal interface linking the turboshaft engine and the infrared suppressor in order to formulate an integrated model encompassing the helicopter, engine, and infrared suppressor subsystems. The simulation results demonstrate that compared with the conventional exhaust system, the application of the infrared suppressor greatly enhances the stealth performance of the helicopter, but also results in the unexpected decrease in engine output power. Moreover, the specific fuel consumption of the turboshaft engine increase and the compressor surge margin decreases in case of the consistent flight condition.

Abstract The controllable speed casing is a novel casing treatment approach that makes partial casing rotate at adjustable and proper speed to achieve stability expansion. Structural parameters of casing treatment are found to influence the effect of stability expansion by many studies. In this paper, the effect of the ending position of the rotatable ring in controllable speed casing on the tip leakage flow and the stability expansion was studied numerically. The results show that when the rotatable ring rotates at 30 % and 50 % rotor design speed, the controllable speed casing achieves the stability expansion of the compressor rotor no matter where the ending position is. The upstream movement of the ending position decreases the axial pressure gradient in the middle and rear of the tip passage. It pushes the shock wave downstream, which reduces blockage region at tip leading edge. The upstream movement of the ending position contributes to an approximately linear increase in the stable operating margin.

Abstract Experiments have been carried out to investigate the over expanded free jet at Mach number 2.0 without and with tabs of different cross-sectional shapes, tab length penetration into the jet core defined as blockage ratio, and symmetrical and asymmetrical placement of tabs at the jet exit. The cross-sectional shapes such as triangular, square, and circular have been studied with the penetration depth of 3 %, 7 %, and 11 % blockage. The Pitot tube and Schlieren flow visualization were carried out in experiments. The basic features of the jet with Mach disk, shock cell, and its distortion with the adoption of tabs at various nozzle pressure ratios indicate a definite influence that helps in the reduction of the core jet length. This characteristic is also influenced by changes in tab cross-section and length of penetration. Since the basic jet has three-dimensional structures, the asymmetric placement of tabs is beneficial compared to the symmetric orientation of tabs. The jet width increases with adoption of these tabs and different shapes. Whereas, a maximum core jet length reduction of the order of 60 % could be achieved using the present techniques.

Abstract This paper conducts a study on closed-loop control of engine performance parameters during mode transition process of TBCC engine based on artificial intelligence method. Firstly, a composite modeling method based on stepwise regression analysis and batch normalization-depth neural network is proposed to establish the on-board model during mode transition to estimate the thrust and inlet airflow in real-time. Secondly, based on the hybrid penalty function-particle swarm optimization algorithm, a mode transition control schedule applicable to the closed-loop control of thrust and inlet airflow is developed. Finally, a data processing method based on similarity conversion is proposed to extend the applicable envelope range of the mode transition control system. The transition time is shortened by 33.3 %, and the fluctuations of thrust and inlet airflow are reduced by 1.33 % and 10.77 %, respectively. When the control system is applied to the off-design mode transition process, a satisfactory mode transition performance is also obtained.

Abstract A hybrid drone called a biplane quadrotor operates in both low (during the horizontal flight) and high (transition maneuver) Angle of Attack (AoA). So, this paper focuses on enhancing aerodynamic force during the transition maneuver. Synthetic Jet actuators (SJAs) can modify airfoil shapes virtually, so either the flow reattaches or flow separation will be delayed. This delay can enhance the aerodynamic force. In this paper, CFD analysis is performed using Ansys Fluent to study the impact of SJA on NACA 0015 airfoil at high (30°) AoA. This study aims to find the best location of SJA for high AoA to get maximum lift enhancement. The outcome of this study reveals that at 85 %, we can get maximum enhancement in the lift.

Abstract The turbine inlet air temperatures exhibit a significant degree of elevation, hence leading to potential adverse consequences such as the degradation of blade material integrity. Consequently, the necessity to cool the turbine blades has arisen, leading to the implementation of various cooling systems. This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of three different types of pin fins, namely oblong, circular, and teardrop, in a wedge duct. The range of Reynolds number considered for the analysis is between 10,000 and 70,000, whereas the pin fins and endwalls are subjected to a uniform heat flux of 3280 W/m 2 . The findings suggest that the friction factor associated with teardrop pin fins is 28.4 % lesser than circular pin fins and when compared to oblong pin fins; it is reduced by 34.5 %. The findings suggest that the friction factor associated with teardrop pin fins is 14 % lower compared to oblong and circular pin fins. The TPF improves with Re, and it is 24.5 % higher than oblong pin fin geometry and 39.2 % higher than circular shaped pin fins.

Abstract Both the aerodynamic and thermal performance are important for a high-pressure turbine design. This paper investigates aerothermal effects of opening on the suction side squealer of a cavity tip in a turbine cascade. There are four cases investigated, ‘Cavity’, ‘Opening 1’, ‘Opening 2’ and ‘Opening 3’. For Opening 1 with an opening area at 15 % axial chord, the opening outflow affects the near-tip flow mainly by interacting with the passage vortex, and the near tip loss increases by less than 3 %. For Opening 2 with an opening area at 12 % axial chord, the near tip loss is lower than Opening 1. By further rounding the edge of the opening area, the loss of the tip with opening is less than 1 % higher than the cavity tip. Nevertheless, the opening tip can achieve a reduction of the thermal load of the suction side squealer inner wall by up to 19 %.

Abstract A design scheme of a static shaft turbofan engine is proposed to meet the requirements of light weight and large thrust weight ratio of small aeroengine. As the core component of stable combustion, the thermal protection problem of the mid-mounted combustion chamber is particularly prominent. This paper designs a mid-mounted combustion chamber configuration that combines gas film cooling and central combustion. The influence of structural parameters on combustion characteristics is explored by numerical simulation, and the theoretical design and numerical simulation is verified based on combustion test results. The results show that the flame shape of the mid-mounted combustion chamber conforms to the characteristics of central combustion. The combustion effect of the nozzle with spray angle of 45° and flow rate of 1.87 kg/h meets the requirements of secondary combustion of the static shaft turbofan engine, and the air inlet of the combustion liner effectively increases the thickness of the cooling gas film. The experimental results are in good agreement with the numerical simulation results, and the temperature of the combustion liner wall can be reduced effectively. The above research provides a theoretical basis for the combustion chamber design of small static shaft turbofan engines and a reference for the thermal protection methods of small aeroengine combustion chambers.
