Abstract An experimental study is conducted to determine the effect of chevrons with zero penetration angles at the CD nozzle exit on an emitted noise field. The implication of passive control is to reduce the blockage of the nozzle exit area with minimal engine thrust penalty. The cold air jets issued at design Mach numbers 1.5 and 1.75 from the De Laval nozzles of the circular section were investigated. This passive control eliminates screech tones at the over and ideally expanded conditions at 60° and 90° in the azimuth plane. The acoustic data measurements have also been observed for the chosen jet Mach numbers. The schlieren images reveal the shock cell pattern to eliminate the effect of shock-associated noise levels at supersonic jets. The results show that 10 chevrons with no penetration act as an effective eliminator of screech tone and noise suppression average ∆OASPL value up to 3 dB at Mach number 1.75.

Abstract The objective of the study is realizing the effect of fuel mass flow rate and flight speed on combustion in scramjet engine. DLR conical strut based scramjet combustor configuration was chosen and simulated the chemical reaction between the air and hydrogen fuel. A slot of size 40 mm × 0.295 mm provided at the center of the strut to injected hydrogen fuel from the rare side in to the downstream flow. ICEM CFD software is used for the generation of structured elements in computational domain for three dimensional flow analyses. Standard k-epsilon turbulence model and species transport equation is used in ANSYS fluent solver. The predicted temperature, velocity distribution along the axial length was compared with the experimental results and validated. The temperature distribution at different Mach numbers and mass flow rate reveals that the peak temperature increased with the flight speed and inlet fuel mass flow rate. The peak temperature noticed at the center of the combustor is around 3500 K at a flight speed of Mach 4. The predicted variation of temperature, pressure, velocity in the combustor and the flow structure for reacting flow facilitate good understanding of the combustion process in scramjet combustor.

Abstract Circulation control is a kind of efficient flow control technology which can improve aircraft aerodynamic performance and reduce fuel consumption. However, improving the aerodynamic efficiency of a circulation device to enhance flight endurance and achieve environmentally flying is a challenging problem for the application of circulation control. This paper presents an efficient flow control technique that combines co-flow jet and multi-stage slot circulation control. The combinational flow control technique is applied to a supersonic airfoil to test its energy consumption and aerodynamic benefit achievement. Results show that both the single and double slot circulation control can improve the maximum lift-drag ratio of the baseline airfoil, with an increment of 11.3% and 19.1%, respectively. Compared with the single application of co-flow jet control which can increase the lift-drag ratio of the baseline airfoil by 16.3% and extend the stall angle of attack from 6° to 8°, the combinational flow control can obtain a more significant lift-drag ratio increment by about 27.3% and eliminate flow separations at high angle of attack. The stall angle of attack can even be increased to about 10°. Additionally, the blowing efficiency of the circulation control airfoil has been comprehensively analyzed. The results show that the maximum effective lift-drag ratio and highest blowing efficiency can be achieved at a blowing coefficient of 0.00235.

Abstract Turbine inlet air temperatures are extremely high, which can result in blade material damage. As a result, cooling the turbine blades is required, and a variety of cooling techniques have been introduced. The majority of the previous research on pin fins has focused on circular fins using a wedge duct to apply a constant temperature and uniform heat flux to the end wall and pin fin surfaces. The present study compares seven oblong pin-fins to seven circular pin fins in a wedge duct with a Reynolds number range of 10,000–50,000 and a constant heat flux (surface) of 3280 W/m2 applied to the endwall and surfaces of the oblong pin fin. The results indicate that the friction factor for oblong fins is 14% lower than for circular pin fins. The thermal performance factor is increased by 11.4%. The thermal performance factor can be improved by using oblong pin fins with higher Reynolds numbers.

Abstract This paper numerically studied supersonic film cooling performance in a convergent divergent nozzle, for the purpose of exploring and extending the knowledge of high-efficient cooling techniques for exhaust nozzles in real working conditions. The work was conducted with a steady state RANS approach with the SST turbulence model. The boundary conditions were chosen to mimic a real engine condition. The slot height and the inlet pressure ratio were varied to investigate the effect of the geometrical condition and flow condition. The flow field was analyzed in detail to study the phenomena of the supersonic secondary flow injected into the transonic flow. Besides the cooling effectiveness, the thrust coefficient and the discharge coefficient for the cooling cases were discussed together with the baseline case, to evaluate the influence of the supersonic coolant injection on the nozzle performance. The work can be a basis for the design of cooling schemes in an aero-engine exhaust nozzle.

Abstract A design for a turbine pre-swirl system with impeller cavity is proposed to improve the quality of cooling air supplied to the turbine blades of an aeroengine. Impeller cavity is analyzed in order to increase the system pressure ratio with a low system power consumption at the system outlet. Theoretical and numerical investigation are used to investigate the flow characteristics in an impeller cavity pre-swirl system. The conclusions in this study indicate that the impeller structure can increases the pressure ratio by changing the power consumption and distribution of the absolute velocity in the impeller cavity and system outlet. To obtain high pressure ratio and low power consumption, the impeller should have a structure with a high outlet installation radius and low outlet angle. The highest increase in the pressure ratio compared with the empty cavity pre-swirl system is 6.4% and the corresponding increase in the power consumption is 2620 W.

Abstract The mixing characteristics of a Mach 1.9 jet at three levels of overexpansion, corresponding to nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) 3, 4 and 5, in the presence of a sonic co-flow (secondary flow), which was submerged in a subsonic co-flow (tertiary flow) was studied experimentally. For these NPRs the secondary co-flow is sonic with underexpanded levels and the tertiary flow Mach number was found to be 0.41, 0.71 and 0.85, respectively. The centerline decay results of the primary jet show that the jet mixing is abated by the co-flow, at all levels of expansion. However, in spite of the reduced mixing encountered by the supersonic primary jet, the waves in the jet core are found to be weaker in the presence of co-flows. This may be regarded as an advantage from the shock associated noise point of view, in accordance with Tam’s theory; which states weaker the waves in the core, the lesser is the shock associated noise. The results show that the reduced mixing environment caused by the sonic co-flow alone leads to the jet core elongation of about 20%, 23% and 49%, at NPRs 3, 4 and 5, respectively. The core length of the jet is found to increase by 29%, 46% and 62%, respectively, at NPRs 3, 4 and 5, when both sonic and subsonic co-flow streams are present.

Abstract In an attempt to reduce engine frontal area, while maintaining a high single stage pressure ratio, mixed flow compressor stages are frequently used in micro gas turbine (MGT) engines. The expansion of the choke margin of such a mixed flow compressor is presented. The use of a crossover diffuser configuration in a mixed flow compressor stage has displayed superior performance results compared to legacy diffuser configurations, especially when geometric restrictions are enforced. A disadvantage of a crossover diffuser configuration is that it typically displays an inferior operating range compared to legacy diffuser configurations. In an attempt to expand the choke margin of a MGT mixed flow compressor, the use of tandem and splitter vane crossover diffuser configurations was evaluated. It was found that a low solidity first vane row configuration provided a 3% increase in choke margin. A splitter vane crossover diffuser configuration provided a 5.9% increase in choke margin. A tandem vaned diffuser with a reduced first row vane number provided a 7.8% increase in choke margin.
